Designed to the principles "Smaller, Lighter, Brighter, Sharper," the 45° angled viewing Opticron MM4 50 GA ED/45 12-36x50mm Travelscope is built with extra-low dispersion (ED) glass, fully multicoated optics, and measures just around 10" long.

The glass and coatings ensure accurate color rendition with improved clarity and contrast, while the 50mm objective lens draws in copious amounts of light to boost its performance in challenging conditions, such as dawn and dusk or when trying to see into wooded areas under dense canopies. The short form factor enables users to hand hold it for convenient glassing on the go without a support system. For optimum eyepiece orientation, the tripod collar rotates up to 90° in both directions, and a 1/4"-20 mount makes it compatible with many tripods, quick release plates, and other popular support systems like window mounts.

Q: 1. We lost the lens cap. Does this scope use a push-on or snap-on cap? And it should be 60mm, correct?

A: The Nikon ProStaff 5 16-48x60 Spotting Scope (Angled Viewing) came with a snap-on objective lens cap. Nikon does not specify what size it was. The objective optic is 60mm. My guess would be a 62mm snap-on cap.

Q: 2. Is it possible to screw in a threaded filter in front of the objective lens? If so, what size is needed?

A: Checking the MFR's manual, this scope does not have threads for a filter.

Q: 3. What is the eye relief?

A: The Opticron Explorer 8x42 WA ED-R Monocular has an eye relief of 17mm.

Q: 4. If the 60mm objective lens is recessed for shade and protection, are there any vignetting issues?

A: Yes the lens is recessed about 1 inch on the Celestron LandScout 12-36x60 Spotting Scope. It does not vignette the view.

Q: 5. Some Celestron scopes are refractive and produce reverse images. Does this scope produce true images (vertically and laterally true)?

A: Yes it does. The images are just like in binoculars.

Q: 6. Can I use this for digiscoping using a fuji x-e1 or x-m1? I can find an adapter fo the fuji but then I need and adapter to the scope? Thanks

Q: 9. The eyepiece is removable, is there an additional function for this? Can we attach dslr with tring? What is the mag without the eyepiece?

A: The eyepiece is removable. Turn the eyepiece holder ring counterclockwise and pull the eyepiece out. I believe you will need a special adapter that would fit in the eyepiece slot since there are no threads to attach the T ring directly. The magnification would depend on the size of you camera's sensor.

Q: 10. Country of origin?

A: The country of origin for the Opticron 8x32 Traveller BGA ED Binoculars BH #OP8X32TBGA • MFR #30648 is China.
