Zeiss Dialyt 18-45x65 Field Spotter Spotting Scope (straight Viewing)
- Product Code: ga243177
-
Originally designed for European Alpine hunters, the Dialyt 18-45x65 Field Spotter Spotting Scope from ZEISS is lightweight, compact, and built for rough use in the field. It is an attractive option for Western hunters here in the U.S., hunters in mountainous areas anywhere, hikers, and nature enthusiasts. This is a straight-viewing, rubber-armored scope with a built-in variable eyepiece. It is water, fog, and dustproof and, unlike draw-tube scopes, is instantly ready for use. Focusing and alignment sights on the objective lens provide fast target acquisition; simply position, focus, and view.
The Dialyt's 18-45x variable eyepiece provides a wide field of view at low magnification and sharp detail at long distances with the higher magnification. This spotter also features multilayer coatings and a large lens diameter of 65mm, providing high light transmission that allows for easy observation at lower magnifications in low-light conditions.
The large magnification range makes it useful for mountain hunting or observation in vast, open areas. It is simple to use, just change the magnification by turning the eyepiece and change the focus by turning the objective. The Dialyt Field Spotter Spotting Scope fits easily into a backpack and, if necessary, can be rested on a pack or rock or leaned against a tree for further stabilization at higher magnification. This spotter also has a threaded tripod mount for lengthier periods of observation. The nonslip rubber armoring, besides offering a comfortable grip, provides added protection to the scope from bumps. It comes with a carrying strap that attaches to the caps of the objective lens and eyepiece for easy transport and optimal protection.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. What is the aperture range of this lens?
A: My question. Apologies that I didn't see answer in product description.
Q: 2. How good is this camera with a7s? and is it 4k compatible ?
A: How good is the LENS with an A7S ...? In my opinion, it is good for all applications, including video. The Loxia 35/2 and 50/2 are completely compatible with all Sony A7 cameras, including the A7S. The lens is electronically connected to the body, and transmits settings and distance to the camera. The lens is very sharp throughout the image, and has exceptionally low distortion. The diaphram is manually controlled, and can be de-clicked for smooth transitions with video. Focusing is also manual, very smooth and precise with a long throw (135 deg). Manual lenses are preferred for video, and the Loxia is one of the best. I use this lens with an A7ii and A7Rii for both stills and video.
Q: 3. have the Loxia 21. Its Killer. Can I use the 50 as a macro lens?
A: The ZEISS Loxia 2/50 is not a macro style lens, since the minimum focus distance is set at 17.7" and the image magnification ratio of 1:6.9. However, the lens can be used with extension tubes to provide close focus capability.
Q: 4. Do I have to use stop down metering?
A: Yes, the lens stops down automatically. I find this most helpful, seeing what I will be capturing before I press the shutter release. I would also add that this has become my favorite lens. Period.
Q: 5. Lens hood storage, do you reverse it and attach it back onto the camera lens?
A: Yes, and because the lens hood is made of metal is nice and sturdy. Very well made.
Q: 6. Does the standard package come with lens hood?
A: Yes. The B&H # ZE352LFE includes the B&H# ZELLS352 MFR# 2122-486 lens hood.
Q: 7. On APS-C-sized E-mount cameras, will the auto-focus work? About the stabilisation (OSS)?(For Sony A6000)
A: While this lens will autofocus on a Sony APS-C mirrorless camera such as the A6000, it will not offer stabilization since the camera does not have it built in.
Q: 8. When will it be available? It used to say January 22.
A: This item is still available only as a pre-order and has not come into our inventory yet. You can choose to be notified by email when this item becomes available by clicking on the Notify When in Stock icon on the product page.
Q: 9. If I want to make the exposure at f/8, will I focus the Loxia lens on the Sony A7RII wide open then stop down to f/8 to make the exposure?
A: Set the aperture to F8 then set your focus.
Q: 10. Where is this manufactured and would the location of manufacturer make a difference when it comes to quality control issues such as decentering and misaligned lens elements?
A: All ZEISS camera lenses, regardless of where they are manufactured, are designed to meet exacting QC standards. You can purchase and use these lenses with confidence in knowing they are designed to offer the highest performance possible and built for many years of use.
