What people like
The Vixen ARTSCOPE 4x12 Monocular is a highly compact, lightweight optical device specifically designed for close-up observation and detailed viewing, particularly in settings like museums, art galleries, and exhibitions. With its 4x magnification and a remarkably short close focus distance (as little as 7.9 inches or 20 cm), it allows users to appreciate intricate details in artwork, crafts, or even for those with vision impairments to use as a visual aid. It features fully multi-coated anti-reflection optics, a BK7 roof prism for clear, high-contrast images, and a durable anodized aluminum housing. Reviews consistently praise its optical clarity, exceptionally close focus, portability, and comfortable handling, often noting its "Made in Japan" quality.

Description
Designed and engineered for making detailed observations of artwork and crafts, the Vixen Optics 4x12 Artscope Monocular boasts an exceptionally short 7.9" (20cm) close focus distance with a wide 11.5° angle of view. Its BK7 roof prism corrects images horizontally and vertically for correct image orientation, and anti-reflection fully coated optics ensure maximum light transmission to produce bright and clear high-contrast views.
The aluminum alloy housing is finished with a red anodized coating for corrosion and scratch-resistance, with a ribbed rubber focus collar for easy handling, and a fold-down rubber eyecup to make it comfortable to use with or without eyewear. The Artscope monocular is made in Japan, and comes with a hard case and carrying strap.
