CHESTER, Va., January 18, 2011 – Originally designed for European Alpine hunters, the new ZEISS Dialyt 18-45×65 Field Spotter is lightweight, compact and built for rough use in the field making it an attractive option for western hunters here in the U.S. and those hunting in mountainous areas anywhere. This straight, rubber armored scope with built-in variable eyepiece features premium optics and is fully waterproof and dustproof, unlike draw-tube scopes, and instantly ready for use. Simply position, focus and view within a split second.

The Dialyt 18-45×65′s variable eyepiece provides a wide field of view at low magnification and the richness of every detail at long distances using higher magnification. This compact spotter also features multilayer coatings, a large lens diameter and high transmission that allows for easy observation at lower magnifications in low light conditions such as early morning or at dusk.

The large magnification range makes it the perfect scope for mountain hunting or for observation in vast, open areas. And it is simple to use: change magnification by turning the eyepiece and focus by turning the objective. The Dialyt 18-45×65 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 threads for a tripod mount if hunters prefer a stable platform for lengthier periods of observation.

The Dialyt’s light metal body and rubber armored exterior make it noise absorbent, rugged, reliable and easy to handle, even in extremely low temperatures. It comes with a wide, comfortable carrying strap that attaches to the caps of the objective lens and eyepiece for easy transport and optimal protection.
