Specifications:

from Birding - December, 2001 ...

". . . well balanced and quite comfortable to carry and use in the field.? "And the best news is that Pentax did indeed managed to design an objective to match the quality of their eyepieces.? ?The result, based on side-by-side testing with the best of the rest, is the brightest, sharpest, easiest view of the bird currently available in any conventional spotting scope.? "The astronomical eyepieces are designed for both wide field and long eye-relief. Looking through them is more like looking through a window than it is like squinting through a conventional spotting-scope eyepiece.? ". . . the zoom, which is huge as spotting-scope zooms go, is simply the brightest and sharpest zoom, at all powers, that I have ever tested or used.? "Low-power, wide-field views are as good as with any fixed eyepiece that I have ever tried, and the high-power views are breathtaking.? "The Pentax 80-mm ED is noticeably brighter in all conditions, enough brighter so that it might make an identification difference in critical situations . . . and so that it could make a difference in your appreciation of the beauty of the bird in almost any condition.? "The Pentax 80-mm ED is a perfectly fail-safe scope: it will give you a satisfying, impressive, even astounding view of the bird in any field condition you are ever likely to encounter.? "A typical birder?s response when I have it on almost any bird: ?Whoa!'"

The totally new Pentax PF-80ED-A 80mm Angled Body Spotting Scope model features a 45° downward-angled eyepiece for comfortable viewing at your shooting bench or in your hunting blind.
