Ricoh Pentax PF-100ED 100mm Spotting Scope

The Pentax PF-100 ED 100 mm Spotting Scope is high performance spotting scope, combining an extra-large, high-resolution 100mm ED lens with outstanding operability.

Extra-Large 100mm Objective Lens

The PF-100ED’s objective lens features an extra-large effective aperture of 100mm to produce a super-bright image field for effortless subject spotting and high-precision focusing.

High-Resolution ED Elements

The objective lens incorporates ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements to deliver a sharp, high-resolution image with minimal chromatic aberrations.

Straight-Line Barrel

The maneuverable straight-line barrel makes it fast and easy to spot and follow the subject from a distance.

Lightweight Magnesium-Alloy Body

The PF-100ED is made of heavy-duty magnesium alloy to reduce weight and protect inner mechanisms, while its protective rubber housing further enhances shock resistance and durability.

Waterproof Construction

The PF-100ED incorporates a dust-shielding glass element in its eyepiece receptacle to assure JIS Class 6 waterproof construction, so it can be used in the rain with no worries.

Nitrogen-Filled Body

The PF-100ED’s body is filled with nitrogen gas to prevent internal fogging caused by sudden temperature changes, providing a clear vision under any condition.

A Choice of Various Eyepieces

Pentax offers four wide-angle XW-series eyepieces three cost-efficient XF-series eyepieces and one versatile zoom eyepiece for use with the PF-100ED. So, you can select the one that best suits your application. All eyepieces feature a long eye relief to ensure comfortable viewing for eyeglass wearers.

Ricoh Pentax XW 23mm Eyepiece for Astronomical Telescopes

The Ricoh Pentax XW 23mm Eyepiece is a high-performance, wide-angle eyepiece for use with high-grade spotting scopes.

Clear, Comfortable Viewing Assured by an 85-Degree Apparent Angle of View and 20mm Eye Relief

With an 85-degree apparent angle of view eyepiece, the XW 23 is newly added to the SMC Pentax XW-series lineup featuring an extra-long 20mm eye relief to deliver an exciting wide-perspective image.

High-Grade Optics for Exceptional Image Quality

The high-performance XW 23 optics incorporates high-refraction, extra-low-dispersion lanthanum glass elements to produce a well-balanced image with minimal aberrations. It is particularly designed to reduce the disturbing blackout effect by effectively compensating for the spherical aberration of the pupil.

Pentax-original Multi-Layer Coating for Outstanding Light Transmission Efficiency

All lens surfaces that come in contact with air are treated with the original multi-layer coating, while all laminated surfaces are treated with the innovative partial coating. to offer a light transmission efficiency of more than 90 percent (96 percent at 550nm) over the visible light spectrum.

Advanced Light-Shielding Technology for Improved Image Contrast

Thanks to Pentax’s advanced computer simulation technology, the XW 23 features a light-shielding diaphragm at the most effective position to drastically reduce internal reflections for a brighter, higher-contrast image.
