Optical Performance:
- High 10x magnification brings distant subjects in for close observations.
- 42mm objective lenses have good light-gathering capability for use in challenging conditions, such as at dawn and dusk, without being too heavy or bulky.
- Compact roof prism light path ensures performance without adding excessive weight and bulk.
- Phase-correcting prism coatings eliminate internal interference to improve color and contrast.
- Dielectric prism coatings boost internal prism reflectivity to greater than 99% to maximize light transmission through the prism with minimal loss and diffraction.
- High-density (HD), extra-low dispersion (ED) glass lens elements reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations for increased contrast and improved color rendition and sharpness without distortion across the entire field of view.
- Anti-reflection fully multicoated optics increase light transmission for accurate color fidelity and improved contrast and clarity.
- ArmorTek exterior lens coatings resist scratches and abrasions while allowing oil, dirt, and sap to be cleaned off without leaving smudges or residue.
- Short 5-foot close focus distance is ideal for making detailed observations of small subjects like birds, bees, insects, flora & fauna at feeders and flower beds.
- Wide 63° apparent angle of view helps to reduce the appearance of the distracting handshake that is common when holding high-power optics such as this.
- 330-foot field of view at 1000 yards
- Closed bridge configuration provides a solid platform for the internal focusing mechanism.
- Large slip-resistant center focus knob is easy to manipulate in cold and wet weather or while wearing gloves.
- Right eye dioptric correction lets you compensate for individual eye prescription for tack-sharp views.
- 55-73 mm interpupillary distance range allows easy viewing by a wide variety of users.
- Twist-up click-stop rubber eyecups for comfortable use with or without eyewear.
- Tripod mountable with an optional adapter for hands-free use to reduce vibration and arm fatigue.
- 15mm eye relief reduces eyestrain to make for more comfortable viewing.
- 4.2mm exit pupil will completely cover most pupils as they open and dilate in low light to ensure the whole scene remains in view without vignetting
- Short bridge design provides more gripping area on the optical tubes for steadier views and more room for larger hands.
- Magnesium alloy chassis reduces weight without sacrificing strength or stability.
- Rubber armoring provides protection from bumps and impacts while offering a positive slip-resistant grip in cold and wet weather.
- O-ring sealed and argon-filled to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme changes in temperature or environmental conditions.
- Tethered objective lens caps and one-piece ocular Rainguard protect the lens surfaces without the fear of losing them when not in use.
- GlassPak binoculars harness & case holds the optic close to your body to keep it safe and secure without swinging or hanging when moving or climbing over rough terrain.
