With the telescopic sight Nighteagle 2.5-15×50 DDoptics Optische Geräte & Feinwerktechnik KG has developed a high-quality optical sight with innovative technology for professional and universal use. In combination with a Price well below CHF 1500 the product is unique on the German-speaking market and currently without any competition,

The "Nachtfalke 2.5 15×50" riflescope fulfils all the requirements of a Movement hunt (13.5 metres Field of visionThe size of the field of view indicates the width of the terrain that can be observed through the binoculars at a distance of 1000 metres. " More info at 2.5-fold EnlargementThe magnification of a binocular model is perhaps the most misunderstood feature. High magnification can be useful! " More info) and the Stand hunting. The Light transmissionLight transmission is the ability of optical glass or optical systems to "let through" as many light rays as possible. " More info 95 per cent (day) and 93 per cent (NightFor night glasses, which are ideal for sitting game and as sow glasses, the light intensity is the most important feature. " More info) record peak values that allow a reliable response right up to the last rifle light.

In addition, the riflescope can be Day hunting the function of a small spotting scope take over. With 15x magnification, distant game can still be reliably targeted even when conventional 8×56 binoculars reach their limits. Only half a turn is required for the entire magnification range. The rubberised eyepiece end can be adjusted by means of a ribbed AdjustmentAlignment in binoculars refers to the parallel alignment of the two halves of the binoculars. " More info convenient the Dioptre compensation (-3 to +4) can be made.

The fully coated optics, which do not allow any reflections, offer an extremely high-contrast and true-colour image with outstanding edge definition properties. Thanks to the minimal amount of false light, even backlighting is not a problem.

This makes the Nighteagle 2.5-15×50 predestined for demanding hunters, technically experienced Long-range shooters and Sport shooterswhich is a Long-range riflescope with maximum optical performance.

The Illuminated reticleDifferent reticles for riflescopes. DDoptics uses the following 3 reticles for its riflescopes, depending on the target optics: " More info 4 is located in the eyepiece image plane (2nd image planeThe reticle in the 2nd focal plane does not simply magnify when looking through the optical sight. " More info ) and therefore always remains the same size when changing magnification. At maximum magnification of 15x, the crosshairs only minimally obscure the target, but remain clearly recognisable to the user.

The Glass fibreA state-of-the-art position and movement sensor registers every movement and the position of the optics. A controller interprets this data so that the illuminated dot is there when you need it. " More info Light pointThe choice of reticle and the associated mode of operation of the illuminated dot is of decisive importance when purchasing. " More infoequipped by DDoptics with completely redesigned electronic circuitry, is kept so small that only the smallest possible target occlusion is achieved. Thanks to the fibre optic technology, the illuminated dot not only becomes darker but also finer when dimmed considerably. The Light point can be adjusted by 100 per cent dimuntil it is connected to the human EyeThe retina of our eyes has two different types of sensory cells or receptors, the cones (for day vision) and the rods (for night vision). " More info can no longer be perceived. The reticle then works like a target optic without an illuminated unit. When the illuminated dot is activated, there is no annoying glow or reflections within the optics. As the Light unit produced by hand can Special customer wishes taken into account individually become.

For the Reticle adjustment does not require any aids. Each click adjusts the reticle by 0.25 angular minutes (MOA1 MOA (one minute of angle or minute of angle) is 1/60th of a degree of angle. " More info, minute of angle), i.e. uni 7.3 millimetres per 100 metres. The Click adjustment works with absolute repeat accuracy and can be reset to zero after firing in (in the event thatseveral labours can be used). The parallax compensation protects against oblique viewing and also ensures a razor-sharp and fatigue-free image at all magnification settings.

The Nachtfalke 2.5-15×50 is nitrogen-filled and therefore completely WaterproofWith a watertight lens, a clean and dry gas filling in the form of an argon or nitrogen filling creates an "internal climate" that prevents fogging. " More info and Protected against internal fittings. The telescopic sight tube is made from a single piece of duralumin and hard anodised. This innovative CoatingIf light hits a glass-air surface (e.g. with a roof prism), the reflection causes a loss of light. " More info is especially Smooth, dirt-repellent and extremely scratch-resistant.

The ring assembly has a tube diameter of 30 millimetres, and the Interpupillary distanceThe interpupillary distance is the optimum distance between the eyepiece lens and the pupil of the eye. " More info of 8.9 centimetres.
