DESCRIPTION

The GPO PASSION™ 20–60×85 APO Angled Spotting Scope is engineered for those who demand precision and clarity in every observation. With its large 85mm objective lens and angled eyepiece design, it provides a comfortable, fatigue-free viewing experience, even during prolonged sessions in the field. Whether you're an ornithologist, hunter, or digiscoping enthusiast, this scope is built to perform in all conditions.

At the heart of its optical performance is the advanced APO lens system, incorporating aspherical design elements and ED glass to eliminate chromatic aberration and deliver exceptionally sharp, high-resolution images. The addition of GPObright™ multi-layer coatings and a dielectrically coated prism ensures maximum brightness and contrast, producing vibrant, true-to-life visuals even in poor light or at dusk.

The wide field of view, up to 36 metres at 1000 metres, combined with a versatile 20–60x zoom range and a close focus distance of just 6 metres, allows users to quickly locate and track their subject with ease. A generous exit pupil (4.3mm–1.4mm) maintains image clarity across the entire magnification range, while the robust magnesium housing and ArmorX non-slip grip offer durability and stability in all weather conditions. Fully waterproof (IPX5) and nitrogen-filled, the scope is ready for use in any environment without fear of fogging or water ingress.

Complete with a tripod adapter plate, lens cover, carry case with strap, cleaning cloth, and user manual, the PASSION™ 20–60×85 APO is a truly professional-grade spotting scope designed to bring the natural world closer with stunning clarity and unmatched performance.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION(S)

Is this spotting scope suitable for digiscoping?
Yes, the GPO PASSION™ 20–60×85 APO is an excellent choice for digiscoping. Its APO lens system with ED glass delivers razor-sharp images, and the wide field of view and close focus distance make it easy to track and photograph wildlife or distant subjects with precision.

Is the angled eyepiece better than a straight one?
An angled eyepiece is ideal for prolonged viewing sessions, offering a more natural and comfortable viewing position, especially when observing subjects at different heights or when using a tripod. It's great for birdwatching, nature observation, and digiscoping.

Very durable. The scope features a robust magnesium housing with ArmorX non-slip grip elements, offering a strong, weather-resistant build suitable for rugged outdoor environments.

Can I mount it on a tripod?
Absolutely. It comes with an integrated tripod adapter plate for stable, long-duration use, essential for steady high-magnification viewing and photography.

What accessories are included?
The scope includes a stay-on carry case with strap, lens covers, a cleaning cloth, and an instruction manual, everything you need to protect and maintain your optics in the field.

Is it heavy or bulky to carry?
At 1807g (including the eyepiece) and 375mm in length, it's a solid but manageable size for a scope of this performance class. It’s designed to be portable enough for field use without sacrificing optical quality.
