The Visionary M12 12×50 monocular is a compact, light weight alternative to traditional style binoculars without any compromise in quality or brightness of image. The rubber armoured body not only protects the optics it also makes them comfortable to use.
This monocular features fully multi-coated optics and BAK4 prisms to enhance image quality/definition and brightness. The rubber eye cup easily twists down for use with spectacles. On the base of the monocular there is a tripod mount that fits all standar
The M12 is fully waterproof making it ideal for use in wet conditions. This model also features long eye relief making it suitable for use when wearing spectacles.
The 12x magnification is high powered for a monocular and would be suitable aviation and general use. This level of magnification is versatile and provides comfortable viewing for a wide range of uses at longer distnaces.
Especially suitable for people who cannot comfortably use Binoculars!
Dr. Roger Palmer –
Finding binoculars just slightly uncomfortable against my eyes and nose, I opted for this monocular to use whilst hiking, watching sport and wildlife spotting. I must report that it is extremely well manufactured and feels like real quality in the hand. Optics are clear, precise and have lovely clarity. It is a significant step up from anything I have used before and represents great value for money. A useful carrying pouch is included along with a mini-tripod.
A few days out with this optic have allowed me to get close to nature, and observe previously unseen details. A word of warning would be that you need steady hands to effectively hold a 12x monocular, or alternatively, the use of a tripod.
Despite the positives, I was tempted to award 4.5 stars as there is no cover for the eye-piece, only one for the objective lens. This is, though, the only very minor niggle, and one cannot give 4.5 stars anyway !
Fast despatch, fair price, and in conclusion I would recommend this company as they seem very reliable. I would definitely order here again if I needed any further optical equipment or accessories.
