Maven S.2 Spotting Scope

Despite its compact size, the S.2 uses a fluorite glass objective and an Abbe-Koenig prism system to deliver clarity and color fidelity that rivals much larger, heavier scopes. You aren't sacrificing optical performance for portability; you are simply getting a more efficient design.

This range is ideal for backcountry hunters and hikers who prioritize mobility. While it lacks the extreme reach of a 60x scope, the 12x-27x range provides a wider field of view and a brighter image, which is often more useful when scanning terrain or identifying targets at moderate distances.

Yes. The housing is nitrogen-purged to be completely waterproof and fogproof, and the lenses feature oilphobic coatings that actively repel water, dust, and debris. It is built to withstand the same harsh environments you are trekking through.

While the S.2 is tripod mountable and performs best when stabilized, its compact 2.15-pound weight makes it easier to steady by hand than larger scopes. However, for extended glassing sessions or using the higher end of the magnification range, a tripod is highly recommended to maintain a crisp image.

The S.2 has a close focus distance of 8.2 feet. This makes it surprisingly versatile, allowing you to observe birds, insects, or other wildlife at relatively close range without losing focus.

Yes, the S.2 offers 18.6 mm of eye relief. This is generally sufficient for most users to maintain a full field of view while wearing eyeglasses or sunglasses.
