The Pinnacle of Optical Performance. The V8 4.8-35x60 is the benchmark model of the V8 product line. With 35x magnification combined with the optional BDC-Advanced Long Range (BDC-ALR) bullet drop compensation, the ZEISS V8 4.8-35x60 stands for the ultimate in long-range performance, providing brilliant details at the greatest possible distance. The V8 4.8-35x60 features an external elevation turret with BDC (ASV) with ballistic rings, .33 MOA turret adjustments, side parallax adjustment, and illuminated reticle #43. The distinctly innovative optics utilize exotic glass types, from SCHOTT glass, consisting of multiple FL (fluoride) and HT (high-transmission) lens elements. The optical system yields an impressively bright image, with a guaranteed light transmission value of 92%. The exterior lenses are then protected from environmental abuse with ZEISS LotuTec protective lens coatings. An immediate advantage of these designs is the extra-large and extra-friendly eye box that allows for faster target acquisition. The specialized optics are housed in a modern and compact 34 mm main tube design. The opto-mechanical system has been torture tested to endure over 800 cycles of impact testing at 1,000 g-force and final tested to withstand multiple impact cycles at 1,500 g-force. V8 scopes are waterproof to 13 feet for up to two hours, further confirming that ZEISS quality standards are achieved.
