Pocket Scope 7 x 18

Years ago I carried one of these and found it really useful.

Partly for watching the wildlife, partly for staring at the stars but mainly for scanning ahead along paths, to see if I could spot the better terrain, long before I had to face making a mistake and cutting across country to get back on the path.

Recently I had a trip to Scotland, and took this unit, and found it excellent. My previous one was huge and heavy by comparison and I was a bit concerned the light nature of this, would mean poor optics and performance.

Nothing could be further from the truth, and by way of approval, my walking companions all stated they wanted one as soon as they were available.

This is a times 7 magnification with a 18 degree angle of view.

I'm keeping mine in my bag of useful bits from now on!

What the makers say:
Small but mighty, the Brunton Echo 7x18 Pocket Scope offers a great combination of magnification, field of view, and brightness, in a small and inexpensive scope. Perfect for use in the field and for close-up high-focus viewing, the Echo has a near focus of 13 inches allowing you to view the tiny details of any object, and a 181-foot field of view at 1,000 yards, ideal for bird watching, concerts, or any other long-range use.

Built with BaK-4 prism glass, the multi-coated Pocket Scope offers excellent clarity and a smooth focus that is easy to operate with one hand. Quality optics have never been so small. About the size of a film canister, the Echo comes with a carry case that fits on your belt. You can keep the Echo in your pocket, a small bag, or your car's glove box. The Brunton Echo Pocket Scope is the perfect "with-you-at-all-times" monocular, offering exceptional optics at an affordable price.
