Named with the fine art student in mind, the 8x20 Gallery Scope is an excellent tool for the close-up study of paintings, the macro study of wildlife as well as an easy to use field monocular that fits unnoticed into your pocket or backpack.
Boasting a high quality Japanese made roof prism optical system, the 8x20 delivers crisp clear images with a useful 7.0° field of view. Focusing at 15m/49ft and over requires only minor adjustment. Wind the focusing fully out and you will be rewarded with close focus to 30cm/12" perfect for detailed inspection of all kinds of flora and fauna.
Gallery Scope monoculars are supplied in a soft case with monocular strap and dust caps
