New rifle scopes from Swarovski Optik

February 11 2026, Stefan Rieger

Swarovski riflescopes

Swarovski presented its new rifle scope series at the Jagd & Hund trade fair in Dortmund.

  • Z6i 3rd generation
    This popular rangefinder series has been concentrated on four magnification ranges. Customers can also choose between SR rail or ring mounts. The 2.5-15×50 model is available with or without a ballistic turret. Reducing the number of models has also made it possible to lower the recommended retail prices.
  • Z5i+ with MRAD adjustment
    This riflescope series is aimed at distance hunters and sport shooters. Some models feature special reticles that help to correct for wind drift and the point of impact.
  • 3rd generation dS
    This rifle scope with integrated rangefinder now starts at 4x magnification, which benefits the field of view. The slightly smaller objective lens diameter has also reduced the weight somewhat.

News from Swarovski: Compact and image-stabilised spotting scopes

December 5 2025, Stefan Rieger

Swarovski News

Once again Swarovski, the premium optics manufacturer from Austria, proves that it is not resting on its laurels. The latest additions to the spotting scope family are the two very compact and image-stabilised AT and ST Balance spotting scopes. The AT has a 65 mm objective lens diameter for angled viewing and 18-45x magnification. The ST Balance has a straight view and is even slightly lighter at 14-35×50.

Swarovski AT Balance

The basic idea behind these two spotting scope models is that some nature observers have always rejected spotting scopes because of their size and the fact that you cannot observe properly without a tripod. Swarovski, as the leading European manufacturer of high-end optics, now has something to counter these two arguments. We were able to get an idea of this during a pre-launch event.

Swarovski ST Balance

At the end of September, we tested the new product and the technology behind it on two extremely rainy days. Among other things, we were also able to observe how these spotting scopes are mounted in Absam. The next day, we went to Lake Chiemsee and were able to test the functionality of these spotting scopes and the image stabiliser both inside Herrenchiemsee Palace and on the shore.

In conclusion, we can only say: the usual excellent image quality and a very steady image when held in the hand.

August 13 2025, Stefan Rieger

Leica Spotting scopes

At the Global Birdfair, Leica the optics specialist from Wetzlar not only presented a new spotting scope. No, two new spotting scope series, each with two objective lens diameters, were presented.

The new APO-Televid 2025 is available with 65mm and 82mm objective lens diameters. Either individually or as a set with the popular 25-50x wide-angle zoom eyepiece. The most important new feature is the improved optics with apochromatic correction and High Lux Pro (HLP) system. Proven dual focus, magnesium housing with full rubber armouring and 5m waterproofness with Aqua-Dura coating.

This revised spotting scope model is complemented by the more affordable Televid HD. Leica combines this in a set with the new 20-60x zoom eyepiece. The sacrifice of maximum quality is of course reflected in the purchase price. Leica has also introduced a range of new accessories, such as a stay-on-case. A new tripod set, which was developed in collaboration with Leofoto, and new smartphone adapters.

These are the new sets:
