Pentax PF-85EDA 85mm Angled Waterproof Spotting Scope without Eyepiece

Discover the PENTAX PF-85EDA 85mm Angled Waterproof Spotting Scope, a high-performance optical device designed for nature enthusiasts, bird watchers, and stargazers. This compact and portable spotting scope boasts a newly designed optical system, featuring a large 85mm objective lens that ensures a bright, clear field of view for superior quality observations. The PF-85EDA stands out in the world of spotting scopes with its ability to offer significantly extended fields of view, showcasing even the finest details with sharpness and excellent contrast. This is a result of PENTAX's innovative use of ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass optical elements, which effectively minimize chromatic aberrations.

The spotting scope also benefits from the latest multi-layer coating process, which drastically reduces reflectance compared to conventional models. This, combined with a full multi-coating process applied to all optical elements and a phase coating process applied to the roof prism, ensures a clear, high-contrast field of view for high-quality observations. Despite its large 85mm-diameter objective lens, the PF-85EDA spotting scope maintains a compact and highly portable design. This is thanks to the incorporation of the latest optical design featuring a roof prism. This compact design makes it easy for users to carry it to their desired location and is ideal for a variety of applications, including birdwatching, nature and astronomical observations, and score checking in archery contests.

The eyepiece mount of the PF-85EDA features an American-standard 31.7 mm ( 1.25 inches) sleeve, compatible with a range of eyepieces, including the XF series specifically designed for PENTAX spotting scopes, and the XW series perfect for astronomical observation. This compatibility allows users to choose the eyepiece that best suits their specific application. The eyepiece section is slanted upward at a 45-degree angle, allowing users to easily adjust the eye level and observe the subject in a natural, relaxed posture without the need to look up. This slanted-barrel design even allows for comfortable long-term observation while sitting in a chair.

Designed with a dust-proof glass element in the eyepiece mount, the PF-85EDA spotting scope is airtight and offers outstanding waterproof performance, equivalent to JIS Class 7, with water resistance to a depth of one meter. This makes it a reliable choice for use even in rain or mist. Note that this model is not designed for underwater use. The interior of the PF-85EDA spotting scope is filled with nitrogen gas to prevent fogging caused by sudden temperature changes, assuring a clear field of view even in demanding weather conditions.
