Why the new ZEISS V8 range is essential kit for stalkers

ZEISS is always looking at how it can improve its offerings. Investigating the latest technology and engineering to offer an even better experience.

Which is why the company decided to develop the new V8 range.

All hunters are different

Different quarry, changing landscapes and environmental conditions demand a variety of proficiencies and so the riflescopes in the V8 range have been designed for diverse disciplines. Some are ideal for driven hunting and use in a high seat. Whilst others will suit stalkers working at long-range and Alpine hunting.

Features

Whilst the four riflescopes in the V8 range are distinct, they all share some valuable features.

An extra-large eyebox is a stand-out feature of the new ZEISS V8 riflescope range

Extra-large eyebox

The stand-out detail of all the V8 riflescopes range is the extra-large eyebox, which is larger than the human pupil. A feature users will notice and appreciate immediately as it gives them more room to position their eye. Getting on target quickly is key to successful hunting and a large eyebox makes this much easier, allowing eye and ocular to work together in swift unison.

The illuminated dot feature is the world’s finest

World’s finest illuminated dot

ZEISS riflescopes give a new definition to the concept of precision. This is thanks to the ultra-fine illuminated dot and low target coverage. The result is an impressive 3.3-millimetre target coverage at 100 metres, even for the smallest targets and greatest distances.

Superb magnification replicates natural human eyesight

Magnification

The magnification permitted by all riflescopes enables the hunter to lock onto the target much faster. ZEISS has designed its scopes to be used with both eyes open – so the hunter feels more connected and aware of the local environment. Images are shown in full and with a greater visual balance.

The multifunction button features on all four riflescopes

Multifunction button

Successful hunting is about silence and speed. So ZEISS has designed a multifunction illumination control button to be used quickly, quietly and intuitively – even wearing gloves. Put the rifle down and the illumination is deactivated. Pick it up and it reactivates. Time and energy are saved and the user is ready to aim immediately, whatever the light level.

A clear view in all weathers

Superb image quality

The Ultra-FL Concept contains several SCHOTT fluoride glass elements for true colour, brightness, clarity and target identification. Quarry and environmental details are shown in high resolution, even when the weather and conditions are challenging.

The ZEISS T* coating guarantees brilliant, high contrast images. Even in the wettest weather the ZEISS LotuTec® ensures a clear view.

Other features

• All optics are fully waterproof.
• Optics designed to remain stable, withstanding bumps or shocks without being affected – just run a test shot afterwards.
• All the ZEISS V8 scopes are suitable for use with “clip on” attachments to increase stability.
• ZEISS V8 riflescopes are designed to cope with extreme weather conditions, whether desert heat or freezing snow.
