IS WP FIELDSCOPES
IS 50 WP, IS 60 WP

 

The IS WP are designed for the first-time user, frequent traveller and those on a budget. Available in two objective sizes; 50mm and 60mm with the option of straight-through and 45° angled viewing, these interchangeable eyepiece fieldscopes are excellent value for money - delivering high levels of performance and versatility in extremely compact and lightweight bodies.

Features and options include; nitrogen waterproof construction, 4 element fully multi-coated objective lenses with BK7 fully multi-coated prisms and internal focusing, rotating tripod sleeve for use with photo/video tripods and bipods, retractable lens hood to protect against glare, accessories for SLR telephotography plus a comprehensive 10 year guarantee.

IS 50 WP T-Scope
At just 205mm (8") long and weighing under 600g, the IS 50 WP is designed and engineered to be a competent fieldscope in its own right as well as a brilliant travelscope for the space conscious birdwatcher, shooter or archer. The quality of both optical and mechanical components ensures the IS 50 WP performs well against many current 60mm OG spottingscopes of similar price.

IS 60 WP F-Scope
An excellent all-rounder delivering good resolution and depth of field, the IS 60 WP is easy to use and transport either on a lightweight tripod or bipod. Matched to one of the three dedicated IS long eyerelief eyepieces, (40916S 25xWA, 40918S 18-54x and 40919S IS Pro 15-45x), the model is an excellent choice for the first-time birdwatcher moving up from 'binocular-only' bird watching as well as the shooter or archer looking for accuracy at distances around 100m.

EYEPIECES
A wide range of eyepieces are available for use with IS WP Fieldscopes. Choosing the best eyepiece is often confusing but making the right choice will depend on price and application. It is important to remember that the eyepiece is an integral part of the whole set-up and opting for a lower quality lens will make a difference to the overall image quality derived from the fieldscope.

IS EYEPIECES CLICK FOR IMAGES
Dedicated long eyerelief eyepieces and best overall choice as a first eyepiece. If you want a zoom eyepiece and getting the 'highest' top end magnification is not essential, choose 40919S over 40918S as resolution, contrast and field of view are all superior. Eyepieces screw directly onto telescope bodies. Eyepieces in table marked * have a twist-type eyecup.
