OptiVance build and optics
Prisms and Coatings
The optics use BAK4 prisms with FMC multi-layer coatings. The prisms handle the light path through the tube, and the coatings are applied to the lens surfaces.
Phone Adapter
The included adapter clip attaches a smartphone to the eyepiece so the phone camera lines up with the view. You can photograph or record what you are observing.

Variable Zoom
The zoom covers 10x to 30x. At lower settings you get a wider view for scanning. At higher settings, bracing your wrist and resting a knuckle on your cheekbone helps you hold it steady.
Body and Sealing
The chassis is magnesium alloy, and the internal sealing is nitrogen-purged. A textured rubber grip sits on the body. Wipe the exterior dry after wet weather.

Monoculars like OptiVance suit hikers, birders and wildlife watchers who want a single-barrel optic that works in one hand. This zoom monocular covers a 10x to 30x optical zoom range and uses BAK4 prisms with FMC multi-layer coatings.
A damping focus wheel and an eyepiece diopter ring fine-tune the image. The chassis is magnesium alloy with a textured rubber grip, and nitrogen-purged sealing is used inside. A 50mm objective lens suits dawn and dusk viewing, and monoculars for bird watching often use this size.
OptiVance also works as a monocular with smartphone adapter: the included clip fits onto the eyepiece for photos and video. It also serves as a monocular for hiking, and a hand strap lanyard is included. The kit also contains:
- Tabletop tripod
- Protective carrying case
- Objective lens cap and eyepiece cap
- Soft lens cleaning cloth and user guide
