Key Features:

- Camera connection: Features an M43 camera/video adapter thread, ideal for afocal and classic projection photography, allowing attachment to most cameras.
- Visual observation: Comes with three interchangeable eyecups: a large, height-adjustable eyecup, a smaller rubber eyecup, and a foldable winged eyecup for comfort.
- Safety design: Equipped with safety kerfs instead of bothersome safety grooves on the barrels.
- Additional accessories: Includes a holster with a belt loop, attachable to tripod legs for added convenience.
- Baader Phantom Group Coating™: A 7-layer broadband anti-reflection coating tailored for low light loss and minimal reflection, optimized for the human eye's sensitivity to green light at 520nm, ideal for night viewing.
Baader’s Phantom Group coating ensures a nearly colorless lens reflection, proving its high efficiency in preserving light transmission across the entire visible spectrum, especially in the green region critical for night observations.
