Quote:

Das neueste Zielfernrohr der Zenith Linie verfügt über ein Absehen in der zweiten Bildebene, wodurch dieses beim Vergrößerungswechsel unverändert bleibt. Durch sein grosses Sehfeld (36 m / 100 m) eignet sich das Modell für den schnellen Schuss auf flüchtiges Wild. Hier kann der Jäger beim Anschlag auf kurze Distanz beide Augen offen lassen und hat dadurch den größtmöglichen Überblick. Bei der Drückjagd auf Schwarzwild oder bei der Safari auf Büffel und anderes wehrhaftes Wild unterstützt es den Jäger in idealer Weise.

The latest scope of the Zenith line has a reticle in the second image plane, so it could remain unchanged when the magnification changes. Due to its large field of view (36 m / 100 m) is the model for the rapid shot at moving game. Here the hunter is in the attack at close range both eyes open and do that, by the best possible overview. In the press hunt for wild boar or the Safari on buffalo and other dangerous game, it supports the hunter in an ideal manner.

Another beautiful scope and with a very acceptable magnification, it is a shame that they are so expensive in Australia but I guess if you want the best you have to pay more for the privilage.

Cheers,

A scope of such wide multiples would seem an even greater feat than the European 1.5-to-6s and Swarovski 3-to-18. I wonder what the black ring between fields is like at the lower powers and how far it extends up the range?

In the old days it seemed power ranges could only go in multiples of about three (eg 3-to-9 or 2.3-to-7). Even now some brands tell porkies with their numbers and don't manage that many. According to Optics Planet, the Redfield and cheaper Leupold 4-12s only reach from 4.5 to 11.4 power.

^ Yep, optical formulae don't lie.
