Olivon T-84EDO Spotting Scope

The Olivon T84EDO spotting scope is high end spotting scope with an exceptional specification and robust build.

High resolution optics and full multi-coating of the lens produces clear, colour correct images so important for Bird watching. This version features twin element ED (Ohara S-FPL53 extra low dispersion) glass which reduces chromatic aberrations resulting sharper detail and colour correct appearance at the edges of objects. Having two ED elements gives this model a performance competitive with spotting scopes around the £1500+ mark

The Olivon range of scopes feature BAK4 prisms and full multicoating to ensure a brighter image throughout the range of magnifications by maximising light transmission. Efficient use of the light gathered is particularly important at high magnifications or when using smaller front lenses, as images appear darker.

The large magnification range offered makes it ideal for viewing scenery or long range observation. Suitable for star gazing and astronomy with it's large 84mm front lens which is excellent for light gathering.

Designed specifically for the outdoors the T-84EDO is fully waterproof with a Nitrogen filled body. This means that when transferring from wet conditions or extremes in temperature the optics will not fog internally. In keeping with it's high spec design the T84EDO also features drop off coating. This makes it perfect for bird watching as it can be used straight from its case with no fear of fogging. Fully multicoated optics provide excellent colour contrast which is especially important for bird watching. The body features a large focus wheel for easy adjustment and a 360 degree tripod sleeve to alter the scopes position.

This scope is supplied with case and caps. The scope can be fitted to any standard camera tripod but is best coupled to an Olivon tripod as it attaches directly with its quick release shoe giving greater stability.

The zoom eyepiece is removable and the scope body accepts 1.25" astro eyepieces (fov figures above apply to the 20-60x eyepiece supplied with the scope). The eye-cup twists down and is removable.

Even at full retail price this scope offers superb performance at an excellent price – Don’t miss out!

I've been in a privileged position to have the opportunity to use and test products from Optical Hardware and Olivon for over three years now, and if there was one product that I have looked forward to it's arrival most - it's this one.

I first heard about the Olivon T84-EDO about a year ago, and I can remember back than that it filled me with anticipation, and I couldn't wait to get my hands on it and see what it could do, I already owned a very highly quality Olivon scope - the T90ED - but the T84-EDO just sounded extra special.

This scope is a serious piece of optical equipment, designed for people who are serious about their hobby and want the best optics available. In terms of optical quality, it is comparable with any of the high-end spotting scopes from the top brands on the market - delivering outstanding colour rendition, image detail and excellent low light level performance, which can only be appreciated by using the scope.

This is now Olivon's flagship model, so it had to be good in order to supercede the superb T80/T90 ED scopes, it was obvious from the moment I unpacked it that some serious time, energy and thought had gone in to its development.

At an RRP of £1100, you would expect a very high specification scope, and that's exactly what you get; extremely high quality ED glass and full multi coated optics encased in a very tough, rugged, armored shell which is both waterproof and nitrogen filled to prevent fogging.

I love the ergonomic lines of this scope and subtle use of colour, it's very tactile with a quality feel. Like other high end brands It's no lightweight, but it is reassuringly solid.

Olivon have again shown their commitment to digiscoping with the T84-EDO, it can easily be connected to the Olivon universal camera adapter by simply un-screwing the eye-relief cap and attaching an adapter ring in it's place, the UDCA then slots over the top. There is also a dedicated range of adapters currently under development specifically designed for this scope which is exciting - check back soon for more details.
