Carson MonoZoom 7x-21x 21mm monocular
Looking for a compact optical device that fits in your pocket yet delivers genuinely usable magnification and solid optical performance? The Carson MonoZoom 7x-21x 21mm is exactly what you need. This monocular combines the practicality of a miniature form factor with a smoothly adjustable zoom from 7x to 21x, making it easy to adapt to any situation - whether you are watching a distant bird, following a sports match, or admiring the architectural details of a historic landmark.
Optical quality above its class
The Carson MonoZoom 7x-21x monocular features fully coated lenses and BAK-4 prisms - a combination that is far from standard at this price and size level. BAK-4 (barium crown glass) prisms minimize light scatter and deliver an evenly illuminated image all the way to the edges of the field of view. The full surface coatings on the lenses reduce unwanted reflections and increase both contrast and light transmission, resulting in a crystal-clear and sharp image across a range of lighting conditions. The exit pupil and eye relief values (12.5 mm at 7x and 9 mm at 21x) are well suited for use both with and without glasses.
Robust build, minimal weight
The body of the monocular is fitted with a durable outer coating that withstands everyday impacts and rough handling in the field. Despite this, the entire device weighs only 70 g and measures 10.41 x 3.56 x 4.06 cm, making it easy to slip into a jacket pocket or a bag compartment. The zoom mechanism operates smoothly and allows quick magnification changes without losing your target - something you will especially appreciate when tracking moving objects.
