Designed and manufactured to deliver unbeatable optical performance and reliability, the High Resolution series represents the definitive choice for anyone serious about Fieldscopes. Built to withstand extremes in temperature, to operate unaffected by rain or humidity the models can be used almost anywhere from the Sahara to Antarctica. The selection of body types, eyepieces and accessories are the result of understanding the needs of the professional, and as such are unparalleled in providing exactly what you want - when you need it.

All models feature a high definition 5 element objective lens system, BK 7 prisms and a unique Opticron N-type multi-coating. This combination maximises colour contrast, clarity and definition especially at higher magnifications under a range of different light conditions.

For even greater magnification, a 2.5x Tele-Adapter option is available for HDF/HR eyepieces. See: UTA. HR 66 GA and HR 80 GA models are fully nitrogen gas filled waterproof and are also protected with a durable natural rubber armour.

Other features include: retractable rubber covered lens hood, rotating tripod sleeve on all 45 degree angled models, easy-to-use rubber covered focusing wheel, sighting bar and the assurance of a comprehensive 30 year guarantee.

HR 66 GA
Receiving the highest praise from independent surveys and industry alike, the HR 66 is firmly established as the preferred choice among fieldscope users everywhere. When used with the HDF T 20xWW & 28xWW 'flat field' eyepieces, image quality is both outstanding and very comfortable - essential when viewing for long periods.

Attention to detail in features such as natural rubber armouring, wide-knob focusing, rotating tripod sleeve & retractable lens hood, make the HR 66 the standard that other quality fieldscopes are judged against.
