ZEISS Victory Harpia 22–65x85 Angled Spotting Scope
The ZEISS Victory Harpia 22–65x85 Angled Spotting Scope sets a benchmark for premium wide-angle observation in a more compact and lightweight form. Designed for birders, wildlife observers, and nature enthusiasts, it delivers exceptional image clarity, natural colour reproduction, and immersive viewing performance across its entire magnification range.
Engineered by ZEISS, the Harpia 85 combines advanced optical design, refined ergonomics, and rugged field durability in a high-performance spotting scope built for demanding outdoor use.
Premium Optical Performance with FL Glass
The Harpia 85 features an 85 mm objective lens paired with FL (fluoride) glass elements, delivering excellent light transmission, sharp detail, and high contrast. Chromatic aberration is effectively minimised, ensuring clean, colour-accurate images even at higher magnifications.
ZEISS T* multi-coatings enhance brightness and contrast, while the LotuTec® lens coating repels water, dust, and oils, helping maintain clear visibility in rain, humidity, or dusty environments.
Immersive Wide-Angle Viewing
With a 22–65× magnification range and a constant 72° wide-angle field of view, the Harpia 85 offers an immersive and panoramic viewing experience that remains consistent throughout the zoom range. This makes it ideal for tracking fast-moving birds, scanning large landscapes, or observing fine wildlife details with ease.
Ergonomic Angled Design and Precision Focusing
The angled eyepiece design supports relaxed, long-term observation from standing, seated, or low-angle tripod positions, helping reduce strain during extended viewing sessions.
A Dual-Speed Focus system allows rapid coarse focus adjustments combined with precise fine focusing for exact sharpness. The rotating tripod collar provides flexible viewing angles and quick repositioning in the field.
Rugged Construction for Field Use
Constructed with a lightweight magnesium housing, the Victory Harpia 85 is fully waterproof and nitrogen-filled, preventing internal fogging and ensuring reliable performance in challenging weather conditions. Its durable build makes it well suited for intensive outdoor use across varied environments.
