Here is some information on the Swarovski optik ATX/STX objective module (please scroll for technical data):
OVERVIEW
ATX/STX 30-70×95: The perfect frontiersmanThe leading spotting scope, with such outstanding detail resolution and up to 70x magnification. This even pushes optical tests to their limits. Despite the 95mm objective lens, this is a slim telescope weighing in at just 2kg (75oz). In a nutshell, it ticks all the boxes for any birder wanting to discover an albatross gliding past an oceanic headland.
INGENIOUS SYSTEMThe new modular design offers previously unimagined flexibility and you are free to choose the perfect solution as the situation dictates. In collaboration with experts, we have developed digiscoping adapters that open up a new realm of ways in which to observe and share the most beautiful moments. Perfectly designed down to the smallest detail, you will be equipped for any situation.EASY TO TRANSPORTNot a gram too heavy for top optical performance. Size and weight is the name of the game for all those who like to travel or spend long days in the field. The ATX/STX series means that bulky telescopes that are difficult to pack and heavy to carry are a thing of the past. The modular design enables you to store the objective and eyepiece modules separately and the smaller dimensions also mean that you can easily and safely store individual modules in your luggage.JUST ONE HANDWhen every second counts. The ATX/STX spotting scopes ensure that you are prepared for moments like this. This is because the new position of the zoom ring, which is now directly behind the focusing ring, makes it easier to handle. It means that you can zoom and focus with one hand, while steering the spotting scopes direction with the other. This completely new ergonomic design offers a crucial benefit for digiscopers in particular. They can now use the camera quickly, easily and accurately with one hand, while the other concentrates on zoom and focus.ATX / STX 30-70×95: THE HIGH PERFORMERThe spotting scope has been designed to help you enjoy the beauty of flora and fauna in every detail. The 95-mm objective module offers crystal-clear resolution with up to 70x magnification. It really comes into its own in wide-open spaces. Also excellent at close-range focusing for just 4.8m/15.7ft for the 95mm.
OPTICS – unique optics design with SWAROVISION technology – field flattener lenses (excellent contrast right up to the image periphery) – fluoride-containing HD lenses (lifelike, high-contrast images) – maximum eye relief (including increased viewing comfort even for spectacle wearers thanks to a special eyecup) – optimised SWARODUR and SWAROTOP coatings for lifelike colours – SWAROCLEAN non-stick coating, making it easier to clean away impurities such as water marks, insect repellent or tree resin – exceptionally large field of view thanks to revolutionary ATX/STX eyepiece – excellent close-range focusing of just 2.1 m/6.9 ft (65 mm), 3.6 m/11.8 ft (85 mm) or 4.8 m/15.7 ft (95 mm)
MECHANICS – light magnesium housing – bayonet connection to make changing objective lenses quick and easy – special eyecup for additional viewing comfort when used with large spectacles; available from specialist retailers – dustproof and watertight up to 4 m (13 ft) thanks to interior focusing – tilting tripod ring for setting preferred observation position, with 8 positions to choose from – tripod base can be used with SWAROVSKI OPTIK tripods without an additional plate and a tripod connector thread for use with other tripods – removable aiming aid to find targets quickly – no fogging due to nitrogen filling
DESIGN – its modular design means that the telescope can be assembled individually according to its intended use. The two parts can also be carried separately, thereby saving space – having the focusing and zoom rings next to each other enables a quick pick-up and sharp focusing. The two rings feature different surface structures and turning friction to avoid confusion in use – large, smooth-operating focusing ring for rapid, accurate focusing and easy use even when wearing gloves – optimum functionality in all weather conditions and temperature zones – integrated, extendable sunshield with filter connector thread, which makes no noise when handled – reflection-reducing, easy-to-handle full rubber armouring for shock absorption

REVIEWS
Review from cliftoncameras by Richard – 5*10/10Stunning optics, 95 mm lens allows in a lot of light, crystal clear and bright even at full magnification. Surprised how good night performance is if used to view stars, moon planets.
Review from adorama by Barry H – 5*ATX heavenUnbelievable edge to edge clarity. I have never seen anything close at higher power magnification.
Review from cliftoncameras by Julie – 5*10/10I have upgraded from the 85mm objective module which I have used for about two years. I will use it for the BTO’s Wetland Bird Survey on a coastal stretch. On a test run I found the improved magnification a real benefit. The image was sharp and clear. I shall very much enjoy using this – it will make my data recording more accurate. I can’t wait for the seawatching season to start. It is an expensive item, but the quality shines through.
Review from adorama by Kris K – 5*Swarovski scopeGreat rendition for birdwatching. The light gathering ability meets my needs.
Review from cliftoncameras by Kathyrn – 5*10/10The binocular view is amazing and I did not experience any eye strain. The clarity is phenomenal and the 95 magnification makes identification in wetland environments a must.
Review from cliftoncameras by Scott – 5*10/10Excellent piece of optical equipment.95mm objective lens: has great light gathering capability and excels in low light conditions.30 – 70x zoom lens: very sharp, high quality image throughout zoom range.Focus and zoom wheels: very easy to use in field.Tri-pod connection: fits perfectly, as the consumer would hope, with the Swarovski CT & DH 101 tri-pod setup.
Extensive review: https://www.optics4birding.com/swarovski-modular-scopes-review.aspxOur final assessment of the Swarovski ATX/STX modular scopes is that they are some of the very highest quality spotting scopes available today. And if you are a digiscoping enthusiast, they are pretty much the only scopes you should consider. Inevitably, this leads to the question of cost.
This is the very high end of the spotting scope market. But if you want to talk about performance, this is also the very deep end of the market, and there is nothing else like these scopes to compare them to. We are already seeing a lot of these in the field, a trend that will only get stronger with time.The scope is brilliant, the view is incredibly high-contrast, the details revealed are stunning. But until you see it, you can’t really even imagine it. We’ve been doing this kind of stuff for a long time, and this is easily one of the best we’ve ever played with. One of the things we routinely use scopes for here is a sea-watch. We take the scope to a place with a bit of height and a panoramic ocean view. Those conditions when the view extends for miles straight out require maximum clarity and resolution from the optics, and very few scopes actually deliver a satisfying performance when pushed that hard. The new Swarovski is one of only three scopes we’ve ever used this way to deliver really satisfying views. That’s saying a lot. The other way you might measure the performance of the scope that you can share is by photography. We’ll cover this in greater depth in the digiscoping section, but suffice it to say that digiscoping is where the maxim of Garbage in garbage out really holds true. It takes great optics to deliver excellent pictures, and as you’ll see, the ATX/STX scopes do exactly that.
Sold as seen in the photos, new and in box.
