Evolution o the Lens

Every optical system by Carl Zeiss combines the broadest range

o ascinations: their scientic perormance and technological

brilliance are as inspiring as the visual power they produce.

Carl Zeiss has taken the calculation o lenses to perection. The

development o new types o glass and coatings has enabled

optical systems to achieve an even greater resolution and lumi-

nosity. Lenses are also continually becoming lighter and slim-

mer. Today, the FL concept by Carl Zeiss is at the peak o thisdevelopment.

Penetrating Brilliance

For a long time, the image quality o optical units suered rom

the act that the lens only allowed part o the incidental light

to reach the eye and scattered the other part back in the orm

o refections. This was the case until the 1930s, when a scien-

tist rom Carl Zeiss coated the outside surace with a layer o

metal fuorides. Carl Zeiss was the rst optics manuacturer to

coat lenses and thereby minimise scattered light and disturb-

ing refections. The coating process also helped to considerablyincrease the light transmission and image brightness at twilight.

ZEISS optics transmit a clear image that is unrivalled right up to

the last daylight.

Protective Layer

or Clear Vision

The purpose o the latest innovation in lens coating is to protect

the high image brilliance rom impairment, even in extremely

wet conditions. The LotuTec lens coating has the same eect

on objective and eyepiece lenses as a lotus lea. Water drops

gather on the lens surace and drip o. This enables easy clean-

ing o the lenses and ensures that ZEISS binoculars always pro-

duce an exceptional visual experience regardless o the weather.

Otdoor enthsiasts all over the world know that

Carl Zeiss high-perormance optics meet their discerning

needs and extreme demands.

The visal experience perected by Carl Zeiss, combined

with innovative nction, drability and longevity, pro-

vides the ltimate reedom.

Resistant Companions

When used outdoors, rough handling o the optical unit must

always be expected. Carl Zeiss lens systems are designed or

strenuous use. The same applies to the stable body and non-sensitive suraces. Furthermore, nearly every unit in the new

generation is lled with nitrogen to eliminate ogging. ZEISS

binoculars and spotting scopes are lightweight, compact and

extremely durable. Their long lie and perormance resilience

make them highly appreciated, especially amongst active users.

Skilled Precision and

Optical Harmony

It is the emotional actors which extend the value o ZEISS op-

tics ar beyond the technical data. With ZEISS, you enjoy visible

and tangible comort through perected ergonomics, design

elegance and comortable haptics. Suraces are easy to grip

wherever secure hand contact is required. You can eel the su-

perior workmanship in the agility and high-precision unction-

ing o the operating elements. To ensure this ne-tuned quality,

much o the nal assembly is completed by hand.

Clear Vision at All Times

As with the surace o the lotus lea, the LotuTec

coating on objective and ocular lenses ensures

that water is repelled immediately and without

residue. Thus dirt, grease and ngerprints can

easily be removed with no risk o damaging the high-quality

lens. Maintaining optical devices with LotuTec is extremely e-

ortless.

Brilliant Viewing in all Weather Conditions

Carl Zeiss has brought the experience o an impeccable view

to perection regardless o the weather. Even in heavy rain

LotuTec coating guarantees a perect vision.

Natre is a ascinating system. In a sstained process o

optimization, it has shown capabilities we can only ad-

mire or in act try to imitate.

Lets take the lots lea, or instance, which instantly

repels water drops avoiding smdges on the srace.

With LotuTec

Imitating the lotus lea protection,

ZEISS Lotuec lenses repel

water drops. Dirt and smears

wipe o easily. Neither water nor

dirt sticks to the surace.

Without LotuTec

As with most leaves, moisture and dirt

particles concentrate on the surace o

the lens. Tey connect with the texture

and broadly cover the surace.

The FL Concept

Above: View through a standard lens. Chromatic aberrations reduce

sharpness and contrast. o point out this eect the illustration is

slightly exaggerated.

Below: Te eect o the FL glass is to minimise the extent to which

the colour spectrum ans out. Tus, contours are practically ree o

chromatic aberration and have a high colour delity, distinguishing

ner details.

The FL Concept

The ZEISS FL optics have dened new standards. At the heart

o the high-perormance concept is an outstanding lens struc-

ture based on high-perormance fuoride glass or FL or short.

Thanks to this unique construction, the observer perceives al-

most no chromatic aberrations in the image. Enjoy the rich di-

versity o nature up to the smallest detail: In conjunction with

the Carl Zeiss T* multi-layer coating, the FL lenses provide im-

pressive image brightness and perect contrast.

Uncompromising visual experiences

In the process o developing the FL objective lenses, our Carl

Zeiss optical engineers have consulted the most demanding us-

ers, experiencing a vast range o extreme situations all over the

world. In order to provide unlimited visual pleasure all day, no

matter the lighting conditions, intererence actors such as stray

light or refexes have been gradually eliminated.

Rich in detail and ll o stnning contrasts,

natre provides a east or or senses. The

ZEISS FL concept ascinates with nsrpassed

bright images and brilliant image sharpness. The

ability o FL lenses to show even the nest details with

sharp contors and no chromatic aberrations is captivat-

ing.

able and eortless.

Practical StrengthLight, Robust and Waterproof

The housing o the binoculars consists o light aluminium and

reinorced high-perormance polyamide, 60 % o which is

glass bre, making the body extremely resistant to impact. The

waterproo and dustproo design, combined with the nitrogen

lling that eliminates ogging on the inside, ensure that the

binoculars stand up to extreme conditions. The durable rubber

armour is shock absorbing. Dirt is easily removed.

are a comortable accessory on long treks.

Magnifcation

The rst smaller gure in the model reerence species the mag-

nication actor. For all-purpose observation use, a actor o

7 10 x is ideal. The greater the magnication, the better suited

the binoculars are or detailed observation over long distances.

However, with this, the images steadiness and the size o the

eld o view are reduced.

Lens Diameter

The second gure in the model reerence species the lens dia-

meter. The bigger it is, the better the image and twilight per-

ormance. O course, the overall external size and weight o the

binoculars will increase with large, powerul lenses.

Good view, steady image:

At 8 x magnication the eld o view is

wider and shaking is reduced to a mini-

mum.

Image brilliance even at twilight:

Large lenses intensiy the last daylight

Carl Zeiss

The eye is or most signicant window to the world. It is

throgh visal perception that the clearest, most indelible

impressions are made on or psyche. With an open mind,

we decide the extent to which we absorb the wonders,

both large and small, that srrond s.

As a pioneer in the eld o scientic optics, Carl Zeiss in-

spires man to new discoveries. Vision is the ocs o their

work. The innovative soltions created by the company

provide the means or those, who combine vision with

passion and criosity, to gain a greater perspective in all

aspects o lie.

The Realm o

Fascination

Foresight

Carl Zeiss is one o the world leaders in optics and opto-elec-

tronics. The company employs more than 11,000 people and

continually sets new standards in all disciplines, including mi-

croelectronics and measurement technology, ophthalmics, pho-

tography and sports optics.

In the last ew decades, more than 20 Nobel Prize winners have

used Carl Zeiss microscopes or their medical, biological and

pharmaceutical research. Carl Zeiss is a name that is highly re-garded and trusted by those who study genetics, viruses and

nanotechnology. The companys optical systems play a decisive

role in the manuacture o microchips, and when it comes to in-

dustrial measurements and chemical analysis, Carl Zeiss projec-

tion systems capture processes to a thousandth o a millimetre.

When used to explore the world and nature in particular, the

rst class optics o Carl Zeiss bring observers deep into the wild,

showcasing animals and their habitats in ascinating detail.

Sophisticated eyeglass lenses ensure optimal visual comort in

sports in all conditions.

The innovations made by Carl Zeiss impact virtually everyone o

us. They are integral to our qual ity o lie and or the unctioning

o the modern world today and in uture.

Te multimedia Nokia N96 (above) is equipped with a high-

resolution ZEISS lens.

Te development o high-

perormance projection

systems has enabled scientists

and physicians to isolate and

laser individual cells. Tis

innovative procedure consti-

tutes a giant step, especially

in cancer research.

High perormance objectives

acilitate the production o

powerul microchips. Te

more powerul the microchip,

the more intelligent, reliable

and aordable everyday

devices become.

Wildlie Management

with Vision

Carl Zeiss Supports Wildlife Conservation in Kenya

Approximately our driving hours Northwest o Nairobi lies theLewa Wildlie Conservatory (LWC), a non-prot organisation

that ocuses on the conservation o rhinos and Grevys zebras.

To ensure close wildlie observation and surveillance, Carl Zeiss

has provided the Kenyan rangers with high-perormance optics.

Active protection o endangered species can be quite challeng-

ing. Game wardens who oten work under rough conditions,

have to be extremely vigilant. Focusing on security, the sturdy

equipment by Carl Zeiss also becomes an invaluable tool in the

campaign against poachers.

The World o Carl Zeiss

Carl Zeiss would like to thank the passionate model teams as well as our employees on site in Sylt/Germany and in the national park La Doana/

Spain, who took part in the photo shootings or the new catalogue. A urther thanks goes to Frankonia or the equipment and their riendly sup-

port as well as atonka or the provision o the images.
