History of ZEISS Optics

Founded 174 years ago in a small German precision mechanics and optics shop, Zeiss Sports Optics carries a much older and larger footprint than most hunters know of the brand. Join host Laden Force in Episode 1 of 6 about the brand, as he provides an overview of Zeiss' history, their involvement of premier manufacturing in many other categories and near 2 centuries of R&D to help confirm the credibility of the rifle scopes or binoculars that you see at your local retailer. From their involvement in Apollo 11 to assists in numerous Nobel Prize awards, Laden explains that the technologies used in Zeiss Sports Optics are not only founded but validated.
