Nikon EDG Fieldscope 85-A
It comes as no surprise that Nikon produces a quality visual product, and their EDG Fieldscope line does nothing to change that. Coming in both angled and straight-through designs at both 85mm and 65mm, Nikon’s trademark ED glass yields bright, high-contrast images. The device is also protected by an O-ring seal and nitrogen gas, rendering it impervious to water and fog.
