- What is a Prismatic Optic? What is Parallax? I try to explain both while showing the new Immersive Optics 5x30.

If I say "Fixed Focus" its a speech error and I mean fixed magnification.
This is MY scope, I paid for it.

If I say "Fixed Focus" - I mean fixed magnification....got my words mixed up.
A fair and balanced review 👍.
I picked up a 14x50 a few months back for my Daystate Huntsman Revere and it's a cracking scope especially if you want it for pest control due to the wide field of view.
Hello Mike, can you help me please? Im looking at buying one of these and the 14x50 sounds up my street.
I shoot Hft and plan some pest control. Your view old be appreciated. 👍🇬🇧
Great to have you back..
Great to see you back
Giles. Been watching your videos for a decade and still wonder how you keep being so aggresively sympatic
Cheers.
Hi Giles, I recently fitted a red dot (springer), but I missed the magnification (eyesight 🙄).
x5 sounds perfect however, as I have Co2, and springers, I think this will finally push me to obtain a PCP 😊.
Love your 'can't be arsed' presenting style, (noticing it more lately 🤔), makes a refreshing change from the usual overexcited twits.
Keep going, we are listening and learning! 😚
Great content as usual I miss your videos. Oh and that laminate wildcat on the top shelf is still looking lush. 👍
I like it
need to do more videos we miss you being out there every week
keep up the good work
Really like your reviews always clear well many times then. And funny. Keep it up!
Very good Giles, a friend of mine has one of these, a different mag though. It is super clear and has a great field of view, it is just the eye relief you have to get used to (as you said), and if you are a glasses wearer, you really can't use the rubber eye tubey bit! 😊
Thanks Giles. Solid review as always.
Nice clear review Giles
Thank you for this review!
Really great informative video Gilles 👍🏻
👍🏽 Still loving my 10x40 I had off you 👍🏽 Ps thanks again for ringing regarding the IR 😊✌🏼
Great review thank you sir 😄mine is arriving tomorrow 👍... going to pop it on top of my recently aquired Leshiy 2.
Thanks for the video pal hope your well and that's a nice little compact scope
Great video! I do love my 10x30 version!!!
Great review with no BS which is very refreshing, well done Giles.
I've had a 10X40 for some time. The IR a bit naff but apart from that. Awesome.
I've had one for a few months now, mine's the same as the one you have but is not a fixed focus, there's an un-graduated side parallax adjuster under the battery housing for the illuminated reticule, stickers for range markings are in the packaging. If you do use the rubber eye cup, the rear lens cover will fit inside it, a neat design feature. I found a pair of rings to fit mine to use it on 11mm dovetails, obviously one is redundant, eye relief isn't a problem as I have a PARD clagged on the back of it and don't use it without the PARD, it's also lower to the bore line than the supplied mount system so better for close range rats.
Good review as always Giles. I bought one of these a year ago, after watching a Steve Allen clip. They are very good. However, I have only used mine a few times, and the on/off button does not work anymore. The battery contacts have given up the ghost. No amount of tinkering has got it working properly again. It still clicks, but to turn the illumination on, the whole cap has to be screwed in fully.
The method I use to avoid parallax offset is to back my head away from the optic until I get a shadow on the outside of my view. Simply center the visible portion and voila, no parallax error.
Excellent. You had me when you spoke of the "magic tube". If you had spoken of unicorn urine or pixie dust, I'd have to say, I just wouldn't have been able to take you seriously. Anyway, I'm now the proud owner of a prismatic scope with the all important Magic Tube.
Would like to see more footage day and night with an add on, I'm in the market for a new set up and this really appeals to me
Very nice my bos....
Giles, so I can fit a Pard or One Leaf on this 5x30 scope👍 Can you do a video of how get it right and what it works like in the dark please?
I love mine but it could really use a sunshade. It doesn’t have the advanced coatings more expensive optics use and I get a lot of flare when shooting towards the sun.
Interesting methodology, but parallax error is the difference between the image through one set of optics and the real image.
An SLR THROUGH THE LENS camera doesent suffer parallax, but a TLR Twin Lens Reflex does, because it has a viewing lens and a taking lens.
Just been looking for a new scope. I need one for my Zbroia Sapsan. Still not sure which magnification to get though!
I do Hft so 10x? Then what about the 14x?????
Great review. Keep up the good work! 👍🇬🇧
Very nice 👌 👍
Nice video! Do you have any night time footage also unedited pard footage? Thanks Adrian
Giles realy liked the review, very thorough.I have a question for you or anyone else, I am looking for some advice about using one of the Immersive Optics scopes for HFT. I am considering either the 10x24, 10x40 or the 14x50 on a .177 PCP. Which model scope do you think will work best for range finding? I'm sure the image quality will be very good with all of them, I have previous experience using the Leupold prismatic, non-adjustable 1x14 on PCC's in the past. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, my budget is small and I would like to get it right the first time.
What is the mount and bipod on the wildcat? Do you sell them?
Can you make a video on mk3 .177 sub12 but with a powerplenum
giles you can get a (chinese) short tube sits about half inch in front of the scope and will change the 5x30 to 5x 40-50-60 depending on which magnifying unit you choose..
Can you send a link of a short tube? Can’t find it 🙈
Hi Giles, why do you refer to this scope as fixed-focus? Did you mean fixed power?
i think fixed power ,the focus was adjustable
Hi Giles how come you’ve never reviewed the delta wolf
Giles dose this come with mounts ?. Cheers
You can remove the locating pin and change it with one of the others
You are the Sir Richard Attenborough of air rifles.🫡
Prismatic optics are primarily simply to reduce the length and give a wider field of view.
I notice two Penguins on your shelf, do they have names?
Would this be ok for a fac air rifle?

Hi Giles
Great show , Giles. We've missed you on UA-cam ! Thanks for your hard work . Cheers Simon from York
Cost?
£250... Plus £19 for the flip up cover.
How much is it.
I want
More technology means less skill. I will stick to my Springer and 5x30 scope. I never miss
why ,the hold steady, barrel , pellet ,trajectory and trigger control ,are what makes the hit ,a scope is just a part
Giles as Shrek mmmmm ...now it all makes sense !
