Robust and weatherproof per IPX6 level
Lightweight with tripod connection thread
The robust, yet very light construction is made possible by the most modern magnesium housing construction. Magnesium is around 35% lighter than aluminium. Due to the moderate 7x magnification and the low weight, these 7x50s are also very well suited for hands-free use. Nevertheless, there is a tripod connection thread on the centre axis. This means that the ASTRO & MARINE model can also be mounted securely on a photo tripod using the tripod adapter (Art.4914925) which is included as part of the package. Although this is not absolutely necessary with a magnification of 7x, it is highly recommended, especially for long-time astronomical observations, in order to obtain an absolutely steady image.
