Long, intermediate and short range – the right equipment for any mission – perfectly compatible

and from one source. We develop our telescopic sights and targeting optics in accordance with

this philosophy. All our products feature outstanding optical performance, an optimal ergonomic

design, robustness and reliability under all conditions.


Introduction

When it comes to high standards, Carl Zeiss sets the pace

Parallax compensation

Telescopic sights without parallax compensation are configured so that an object at a predefined

distance, e.g. 100 meters, is exactly imaged in the reticle plane. Objects at other ranges appear

either in front of or behind the reticle. This can lead to parallax errors when looking into the eye-

piece at a slanted angle. Telescopic sights with parallax compensation enable the user to precisely

adjust the range to avoid such errors. Our telescopic sights provide parallax adjustment from

50 m to ∞.

Reticle illumination

The reticle is equipped with continuously adjustable illumination which also permits precise target

acquisition in the twilight. The previously used brightness setting on the illuminated reticle is auto-

matically activated when the riflescope is turned on.

First or second image plane?

If the reticle is in the first image plane, its size changes congruent with the magnification. This

enables simple range determination via the magnification range without having to recalculate. The

size of a reticle in the second image plane does not change when the magnification is adjusted.

The subtension of the reticle changes with the scale of the set magnification.

First or second image planeReticle illumination Parallax compensation

3 – 12 x 56 and 4 – 16 x 56Telescopic sights

When using a telescopic sight with a night sight attachment, every centimeter counts depending

on the assembly options on the weapon. Therefore, our ambition during development of the

3 – 12 x 56 and 4 – 16 x 56 telescopic sights was to deliver maximum performance while main-

taining a short optical system.

In addition to a compact design, the adjustment range of the elevation turret also sets new

standards. The 3 – 12 x 56, for example, provides an adjustment range of 400 cm at 100 m.

The main benefits

• Very compact design

• High adjustment ranges

• Reticles in the first or second image plane

• Reticle in accordance with customer needs

6 – 24 x 56 and 6 – 24 x 72Long rangeTelescopic sights

The lens diameter considerably influences the optical capabilities of a telescopic sight. With

increasing magnification, the brightness of the scene diminishes. This factor plays a key role in

the military, in particular, where long ranges are common. Under adverse weather conditions

such as precipitation, twilight and haze, high magnification often leads to unwanted results.

Therefore, we have limited our 6x to 24x telescopic sights to a magnification range that is both

beneficial and noticeable to the user and combined it with a choice of a 56 mm or 72 mm lens.

Our 6 – 24 x 56 is the right telescopic sight when extremely precise adjustability and very high

magnification are required.

The main benefits

• Very high twilight performance

• Brilliant, high-contrast image even at high magnification

321

1 When even more precision is needed – click stops from 0.5 cm at 100 m enable very precise adjustment of the target line on our 6 – 24 x 56

2 The high-speed, 72 mm lens increases the twilight factory by 13 percent over the 56 mm model

3 Specifications such as the reticle or a customized finish are tailored to customer demands

1 Temperature, air pressure, cant and inclination angle sensors integrated during assembly, which is available with 0 or 30 MOA pantoscopic tilt

6 – 24 x 72 SAMLong rangeTelescopic sight

The 6 – 24 x 72 SAM telescopic sight is an innovation among telescopic sights: for the first time,

the click values of the top and side turrets, as well as relevant environmental conditions such as

air pressure and temperature are digitally displayed in the field of view.

The integrated ballistic calculator determines the required elevation and azimuth correction based

on the given ammunition, range to the target and current environmental data. The time-consuming

evaluation of shot charts is a thing of the past. This enables riflemen to achieve a very high hit

probability at long range without prior experience with a specific type of ammunition.

Because the respective ballistic values are zeroed and saved separately, completely different

types of ammunition and calibers can be used without having to readjust the system. The cost of

expensive training rounds is reduced and valuable training times can be used for other purposes.

The main benefits

• Integrated ballistic calculator

• Integrated sensors to measure environmental data

•Display of the elevation and azimuth setting in the field of view

•Significant increase of first shot hit probability

2 Fast orientation – noticeable double click every 10 clicks

1 Internal adjustment to minimize the risk of unintended adjustments caused by jolts or removal of the targeting optics

Intermediate rangeTargeting optics 4 x 30

4 x 30 targeting optics deliver excellent optical performance, particularly in adverse visibility

conditions. The twilight performance is extraordinary for targeting optics: with an exit pupil of

7.5 mm, the 4 x 30 is particularly well-suited for the twilight and practically optimized for the

human eye.

This benefit now carries over to the use of a night sight attachment. Combined with our

NSV 600, in particular, users can now take advantage of the large field of view of 140 m at

1000 m even at night. Riflemen maintain an overview despite the 4x magnification.

Optimized adjustment of the eye relief, pupil diameter and field of view with maximum edge

definition make the 4 x 30 targeting optics a superior targeting instrument for intermediate

ranges.

The main benefits

• 4x magnification with a very large field of view

• Viewing distance to the eyepiece: 6 cm

• Internal adjustment

Short rangeTargeting optics RSA-S reflex sight and VGN 3x magnification attachment

The RSA-S reflex sight, a compact collimator sight, is ideal for fast reaction and close quarters.

Precision optics and state-of-the-art electronics enable fast target acquisition in all situations.

Reliable engagement up to 200 m can be easily achieved. The RSA-S reflex sight is watertight

and extremely resistant to jolts and vibrations. It is designed for two-eye operation, which allows

very fast target acquisition. At only 100 g, the RSA-S is truly a lightweight instrument.

Wide ranging conditions demand flexibility and an optimal compromise between balance and

weight – on the weapon and the targeting optics. The VGN 3x magnifying adapter is used with

the RSA-S for reconnaissance and targeting at longer distances.

The main benefits

• Compact and lightweight

• Hybrid power supply

• One-button operation

• Continuously adjustable brightness of the illuminated dot

Observation optics

Powerful optics are measured by how well they image details at long range. Early reconnaissance

enables a well-informed decision – action instead of reaction. Spotting scopes from Carl Zeiss

Optronics set new standards by tailoring optical excellence to the needs of military missions where

desert conditions, cold or rain are often on the daily agenda.

Observation optics

Observation optics

TLS40 – the intelligent combination of a powerful laser rangefinder, integrated GPS, digital magnetic

compass (DMC) and digital camera. Unlike diode lasers, the TLS40 is equipped with a single-pulse

laser and is capable of measuring long distances even in poor visibility. Target reconnaissance has

been optimized by a 7x magnifying day channel featuring the optical quality for which Zeiss is

renowned.

Following reconnaissance and rangefinding, the TLS40 uses the internal GPS and digital compass

to project the target coordinates into the field of view. This enables fast reporting or the reliable

use of controlled high-angle fire. The device also offers interfaces for external GPS instruments such

as PLGR.

An additional, beneficial feature is the integrated digital camera which enables the capture and

storage of target images and all relevant information (range, coordinates, etc.). A short audio

commentary can be added to each photo for later evaluation.

The main benefits

• Very long range laser – even in fog

• Outstanding optical quality

• Simple, menu-guided operation

OPUS-H

With its technological configuration, OPUS-H ends the wait for a solution that eliminates the need

for other devices. The high-quality day optics with 7x magnification replaces the binoculars, the

powerful single-pulse laser the laser rangefinder.

The uncooled thermal imager not only improves reconnaissance capabilities, it also enables the use

of the laser rangefinder at night. An additional night-capable laser rangefinder is no longer required.

The day optics allow reconnaissance without power consumption: the eyes of the user are, after all,

the best daytime sensors – particularly when combined with optics from Carl Zeiss. The NIR camera

(near infrared) supports observations in hazy or foggy conditions during the day.

An additional benefit: combined with the digital compass (DMC), the integrated GPS immediately

delivers target coordinates. Thermal images can be stored with corresponding information (range,

coordinates, etc.).

The main benefits

• Powerful uncooled thermal imager

• High-quality day channel

• Powerful laser rangefinder

Night sight

Modern mission scenarios do not know the difference between night and day. Threats can arise

at any time of day. This is reason enough to turn night into day. Doing so requires maximum

performance and range. Every meter translates into extra time. Extra time makes it possible to

make the right decision.

Night sight

Introduction

Residual light intensifiers

Our night sight attachments were developed for poor-weather and nighttime missions. They do

not require start-up or warm-up time and are based on the residual light amplification principle,

making them ideal as an attachment for almost all telescopic sights on the market. All operating

elements are close together and can also be easily and accurately operated when the user is wear-

ing gloves. A fast clamping assembly on the basis of MIL-ST1913 Picatinny enables fast mounting

and removal of the device.

With this system, you only need an aligned weapon system with daylight optics. Simply mount

the night sight attachment in front of the targeting optics on the available rail to create a night

vision system. The 1:1 magnification eliminates the need to align the night vision components.

In addition to the lower weight, it is also no longer necessary to change your behavior: users can

continue using their familiar daylight optics. Particularly important for snipers: the daylight optics

do not have to be removed for nighttime missions.

Combined with an adapted 8 x 20 T* monocular, the night sight attachment transforms into a

handheld observation tool with 8x magnification.

NSV 80 is one of the first night sight attachments on the market. It is still reliably used by military and paramilitary forces the world over.

Night sightNSV 600 night sight attachment

Intended for assault rifles, lightweight machine guns and sniper’s weapons, the

NSV 600 delivers impressive optronic features despite its compact size.

Key elements such as the focusing knob are optimally positioned from an ergonomic

standpoint to enable ease of use for both right and lefthanders.

In addition to high-end optics, we also offer the latest military-capable residual light

intensifier tubes in Europe as part of our night sight attachments.

The main benefits

• Compact and lightweight

• Manual gain control – optional remote control

• Extremely low maintenance

Introduction

Thermal imagers

The primary benefit of thermal imaging technology is that it works without the visible light

needed by the human eye. It detects infrared radiation and makes it visible.

For military use, this technology provides two fundamental tactical advantages: optically camou-

flaged targets can be identified because it is very difficult to effectively conceal a source of heat.

Unlike residual light intensifiers, thermal imagers can also be used during the day.

Thermal imagers are available with cooled and uncooled detectors. Cooled devices detect IR

radiation at a wavelength range of 3 – 5 µm or 8 – 12 µm and are generally more powerful than

uncooled models. However, they cost more, are heavier, noisier and need longer to cool down.

Uncooled devices are an alternative. Their detection range is 8 – 14 µm and they are considerably

lighter, more economical and immediately ready for use (approx. 5 seconds). A particular tactical

benefit: they are quiet.

Thermal image @Zeiss: reconnaissance and effectiveness in any weather

Night visionIRV 600 thermal imager

Developed for assault rifles or light machine guns, the IRV 600 impresses with its high

performance.

At a size of 640 x 480 pixels, the detector offers the highest geometric resolution available

on uncooled devices. Users can choose between a large (0.5x magnification) and small

(1x magnification) field of view.

As an attachment, the IRV 600 delivers an image that can be magnified by the targeting

optics on the weapon. It can be attached and removed without adjustment.

Noiseless and ready to use in only five seconds, the IRV 600 is the right choice when

tactical requirements focus on weight and range superiority.

The main benefits

• Very long range

• Simple operating concept

• External video ports

Night visionIRV 900 thermal imager

Specially developed for the needs of snipers, the IRV 900 does not disappoint. As an uncooled

device, it is quiet and quickly ready to use. The familiar and adjusted day optics remain on the

weapon; additional adjustments are not required.

At a size of 640 x 480 pixels, the detector offers the highest geometric resolution available on

uncooled devices. Despite its high performance, the IRV 900 impresses with its moderate weight

and compact size.

Optional optics transform the IRV 900 into a powerful, handheld observation device.

The main benefits

• Very long range

• External video ports

• Variable height assembly on the weapon
