GPO PASSION™ 16-48×65 APO spotting scope brings German-precision optics to the field, offering a versatile 16-48× magnification range and a large 65 mm objective lens for superior light-gathering performance. The apochromatic (APO) lens design virtually eliminates chromatic aberration, delivering crisp, high-contrast images for serious nature observers and birding enthusiasts.

Engineered for outdoor use, the spotting scope features a robust magnesium housing that ensures lightweight yet rugged durability, complemented by non-slip ArmorX grip elements for secure handling in all conditions. The body is nitrogen-filled and rated IPX5 waterproof, making it reliable in wet or humid Australian environments.

Performance highlights include the GPObright™ high-transmission coatings, which maximise light throughput, and a precision brass gear helical-focus system that allows smooth, accurate focusing on distant subjects. An integrated tripod adapter plate makes setup effortless, while a stay-on carrying case with a strap is included to protect your gear and simplify transport.

With a minimum focusing distance of 4 m and a field of view at 1000 m ranging from 46 m to 24.5 m, the GPO PASSION™ 16-48×65 APO spotting scope is suited for a wide range of observation scenarios, from close-in birdlife to distant landscapes.

Whether you’re scanning the coastline for whales, stalking native birds in remnant bushland, or simply enjoying nature from your local park, this spotting scope offers the optical clarity, build-quality and portability to match the demands of Australian outdoor conditions.
