Image-stabilized long-range optical device

Abstract

The invention relates to a binocular long-range optical device, having a first optical channel, which has a first housing and a first arrangement of first optical elements in the first housing. The first arrangement has at least one first optical element movable relative to the first housing. A second optical channel has a second housing and a second arrangement of second optical elements in the second housing. The second arrangement has at least one second optical element movable relative to the second housing. At least one passive stabilization system based on mass inertia for image stabilization in the event of perturbing movements of the first and second housings is provided. The at least one first movable optical element and the at least one second movable optical element are movable relative to one another. The at least one stabilization system has at least one first passive stabilization system based on mass inertia, which acts on the at least one first movable optical element of the first optical channel, and at least one second passive stabilization system based on mass inertia, which acts on the at least one second movable optical element of the second optical channel. The first housing and the second housing are connected to one another by a foldable bridge.
