This Alpen MINI spotting scope is fully waterproof and fogproof. The small size does not mean these are not powerful. This model has 20x magnification which provides close up viewing of distant objects while weighing only 11 ounces. The retractable sun shade helps reduce glare and the multi-coated optics deliver a bright crisp image. Great for back country use as well as in your back yard. Comes with small table top tripod and durable carrying case. Backed by Alpen's lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. (

Good Buy
