PRODUCT UPDATE

Carl Zeiss introduces new Victory DiaScope T* FL Spotting Scopes – the ultimate in nature observation. Featuring an innovative and highly advanced Dual Speed Focus System (DSF), the new Victory DiaScopes also have an eyepiece that is the most powerful and versatile on the market today and a new, sleek rubber-armored exterior for improved feel and protection for the highly durable magnesium/aluminum housing.

Brilliant Optical Performance
Available in compact 65mm models for the more mobile users and 85mm models for those seeking maximum brightness and highest magnification, the DiaScope’s optical performance is exceptional. Its FL lens system was engineered to produce superior image quality – extremely detailed, sharp, brilliant, true-color images, even in challenging lighting and weather situations. The new DiaScopes also feature an advanced stray light reduction system which virtually eliminates contrast-reducing stray light.

Rapid Focusing
The newly engineered Dual Speed Focus System (DSF) allows precise and convenient focusing.

This one focus wheel allows you to control both the ultra-precise and rapid focusing without changing your grip. The control is ultra-precise when the focusing wheel is turned back and forth slowly around the point of best focus. The rapid focusing, which is five times faster, is automatically activated when the focus wheel is turned more than 270°.

More Magnification
The powerful new Vario D 15-56x / 20-75x eyepiece is particularly versatile. It functions as a 15-56x on the 65mm DiaScope and 20-75x on the 85mm model providing the widest range of power currently available on the market. Not only will long-range observation be improved by the extra magnification, viewers will also experience an unusually wide field of view and high image brightness at low magnification. Eyepieces for the new DiaScopes are also available in the Vario D 15-45x / 20-60x and Vario D 30x / 40 x models. All DiaScope eyepieces come with Carl Zeiss’ award-winning LotuTec® water repellant coating. A bayonet locking system securely locks the eyepieces onto the body of the scope yet still allows for quick and easy changing.

Tough and Durable
The aluminum / magnesium housing make the new DiaScopes lightweight and robust, and the high-quality armoring provides optimal protection and an outstanding feel while eliminating noise during use in the field. All DiaScopes are waterproof and nitrogen filled. Accessories include an ultra-functional carrying case featuring an AirCell carrying strap with quick-release fasteners for ready use at a moments notice. Both models are available in straight or angled bodies.
