Compact yet effective, Bushnell Spacemaster spotting scopes pack a lot of viewing power and features into a small and light packages. The innovative form factor features an optics barrel that retracts into the body of the product, significantly reducing size and making them much more portable. The optics are mutlicoated and powerful, 15x to 45x zoom capabilities and either a 50mm or 60 mm objective lens. The waterproof spotting scopes in this series are treated with Rainguard, which prevents water beading on the exterior surfaces of lenses. We like this feature a lot for any waterproof scope.
The exterior package of the waterproof scopes in the Spacemaster series are rubber armored for durability when used outdoors. The 50mm models are not waterproof, but offer long eye relief for comfortable use for long periods. The 50mm models from this series pack a lot of power into a very portable package. The waterproof Spacemaster models are very capable and easy to transport in the field while still providing superb image quality
