The Swarovski STC 17-40x56 Spotting Scope offers high-performance optics in a lightweight, straight-view design—perfect for mobile glassing.
Small dimensions, outstanding optics: thanks to its length of 285 mm (11.2 in), the STC spotting scope with straight view will fit in any backpack. A weight of just 980 g (34.6 oz) makes it a top choice for tours in rough terrain and remote areas. The clever half shell makes it easier to position on a surface without a tripod and allows unimpeded turning of the focusing and zoom wheel at all times. In combination with the VPA, the STC is ideal for digi-scoping. The carrying strap adds the perfect finishing touch.
