The MINOX 80Z features a redesigned prism system and a newly developed 9-element optical construction, making it approximately 20% more compact than comparable spotting scopes in its class. With a versatile 20×–60× magnification range, it adapts perfectly to wildlife observation, range use, or long-distance spotting.
You benefit from brilliant optical performance with high contrast and virtually distortion-free color reproduction, delivering excellent detail recognition. The optical components are housed in a robust, rubber-armored metal body, ensuring outstanding durability. The scope is waterproof up to 5 meters, while the gas filling reliably prevents internal fogging even during rapid temperature changes.
The included canvas stay-on case allows you to operate the spotting scope without removing the protective cover. The solid metal tube construction effectively protects the sensitive mechanical and optical components.
In the ZR version, the MR2-S reticle is positioned in the first focal plane (FFP), meaning it scales proportionally with magnification. It is fully compatible with tactical riflescope reticle systems. Precise 0.2 milliradian graduations, along with additional AQRAS and milliradian scales, make it an excellent choice for orientation, target acquisition, range estimation, and sniper support applications.
