        Introduction of Swarovski Z8i series<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Swarovski’s Z8i series comes a few years after the highly successful Swarovski Z6i<\/a><\/strong>. I think that because of the 50mm objective lens<\/strong>, the Z8i 2-16×50 model is one of Swarovski’s best sellers<\/strong>. This medium size riflescope is a perfect all-rounder<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Scopes with 8x zoom<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        I believe that releasing the Z8i was a direct response to Zeiss’s V8 series of scopes<\/a><\/strong>. With the release of the Z8i and V8 series, top players began extending their zoom ratio <\/strong>beyond what was previously seen. A few years ago, six times zoom was something out of the ordinary. Now eight times zoom is the new norm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

        Improved features compared to Z6i  <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        The Z8i series from Swarovski is an improvement upon the earlier line, the Z6i:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        1. The first thing to note is that the scopes have a higher light transmission <\/strong>\u2013 at least claimed.<\/li>
        2. The scopes in the Z8i series feature an 8x zoom factor<\/strong>.<\/li>
        3. They have a wider field of view<\/strong>.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
