The Vixen Apex II 12\u00d730 magnifies 12 times with 30 mm lenses, in a compact size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Think of birds on the other side of a pond or a mountain slope in the distance. The fledging chick is 2.5 mm long, so it is mainly active during the day. You can find other compact models at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/binoculars-2\/hiking-travel-viewers\/\">binoculars for hiking and travel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With 12x you can see every movement of your hands. Lean against something, or set the viewer on a tripod if they have a mount for that, for example with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/tripod-adapter-with-quick-coupling-for-binoculars-bushnell\/\">a tripod adapter with quick-release coupling<\/a>. The field of view is smaller than with 8x, so first look for your subject with the naked eye and then slowly bring the viewfinder to your eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to get 12x without shaky footage, then look at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/vixen-atera-ii-12x30-binoculars-with-image-stabilization-for-hiking-and-travel\/\">the Atera II 12\u00d730 with image stabilization<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Compact binoculars with 12x magnification and 30 mm lenses, for those who want to see details from a distance on a hike or trip.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":113985,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[3271],"product_cat":[595,598],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-113991","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_brand-vixen","product_cat-verrekijkers","product_cat-wandel-reiskijkers","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"instock","bundle_stock_quantity":null,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundle_price":[],"bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":111636,"url":"https:\/\/www.telescoop.nl\/en\/zwo-seestar-s50-pro\/","url_meta":{"origin":113991,"position":0},"title":"ZWO Seestar S50 Pro","author":"Info telescoop","date":"25-08-2026","format":false,"excerpt":"The ZWO Seestar S50 Pro is the successor to the Seestar S50: 50 mm quadruplet APO (260 mm, f\/5.2), two 8.3 MP 4K sensors, a 63-degree wide-angle camera for the Milky Way up to 8K, three built-in filters, a 10,000 mAh battery (up to 9 hours), and 128 GB of storage.
