Zeiss MiniQuick Monocular Makes Great Pocket Optics


The Zeiss T* MiniQuick Monocular is a cool monocular in a very small, lighweight package. This particular monocular is 5 x 10 (5x magnification with a 10x objective lens). This might just make the perfect novelty gift for someone on your list this Christmas.

The 5 x 10 MiniQuick Monocular weighs in at only 0.8 ounces - light enough to put in your pocket and forget about. At only 4.5 inches high and equipped with a clip you can actually put the MiniQuick in your shirt pocket next to a pen. One more cool feature on the MiniQuick is the ability to use it as a pocket magnifier. Simply turn the MiniQuick around and look through the objective lens.

The MiniQuick affords the user a 300 foot field of view at 1,000 yards. The 2mm exit pupil may impact low-light performance but the MiniQuick is so light and easy to carry you are likely to actually have optics with you when needed rather than in the car or at home. For an all-around, handy monocular the Zeiss MiniQuick may be hard to beat.

The Zeiss MiniQuick is available from Amazon and other retailers.
