Spotting Scope Vanguard Endeavor XF 80A 20-60x80
The Vanguard Endeavor XF 80A is a high-quality spotting scope designed for demanding nature enthusiasts, hunters, and long-range shooters. With an 80mm objective lens and variable magnification from 20x to 60x, this telescope offers excellent image quality and an impressive field of view for accurate observations at great distances.
Optical performance
The optical system of the Endeavor XF 80A features fully multi-coated lenses that ensure optimal light transmission. The phase-coated BAK4 roof prism guarantees true-to-life colours with excellent contrast. At 1000 metres, the field of view is 37 metres at the lowest magnification and 17 metres at maximum zoom, ensuring you always maintain sufficient overview.
The eye relief varies between 19 and 20mm, which is comfortable for both eyeglass wearers and those without glasses. The extendable rubber eyecup ensures pleasant use, even during extended observation sessions at high magnifications. The minimum focusing distance is between 6.00 and 6.50 metres.
Robust construction
The housing is made from magnesium and features a durable rubber protective layer. This combines lightweight construction (1680 grams) with excellent protection against impacts and scratches. The spotting scope is 100% waterproof and nitrogen-filled, making internal condensation impossible during temperature changes. This fog-proof construction makes it suitable for use in all weather conditions.
Ease of use and functionality
The large focusing wheel is ergonomically designed and can be accurately operated even with gloves. The centre focus enables quick and precise adjustments, crucial at high magnifications. The integrated sunshade prevents glare during observations in direct sunlight and can be retracted when not needed.
The angled eyepiece offers a comfortable observation position, especially during prolonged use from a tripod. This setup significantly reduces neck and back fatigue compared to straight configurations.
Tripod mounting
The Endeavor XF 80A features a universal tripod connection with standard 1/4"-20 thread. It mounts directly to Vanguard tripod heads with universal mounting plate, without requiring a quick release. The tripod mount can be rotated for optimal viewing angles in various situations, such as from a shooting bench or when using a window mount.
Included accessories
Upon delivery, you receive a padded rain cover with carrying strap that protects the spotting scope during transport and storage. The case features a shoulder strap for comfortable carrying in the field.
