Product Overview
Built for serious glassing, the Pentax PF-85EDA Angled Spotting Scope gives you a big, bright 85mm objective in a compact, travel‑ready body. ED glass and full multi‑coating keep the image sharp and clean, with chromatic aberration dialled right back so you can pick fine detail in feathers, antlers or distant ridgelines. The 45° angled eyepiece position lets you stay comfortable behind the scope for long sessions, whether you’re on a hill, in a hide or set up on the verandah.
The PF-85EDA is nitrogen‑filled and JIS Class 7 waterproof, so it shrugs off rain, spray and sudden temperature changes without fogging up. A rotating 1/4"‑20 tripod collar and integrated lens shade make it easy to set up quickly and control stray light, while the collet‑style 1.25" eyepiece mount means you can run your favourite astro or Pentax eyepieces to suit the job at hand. If you want a rugged, high‑performance spotter that’s at home from the outback to the coast, this Pentax body is ready to work.
