PENTAX S-SERIES SD 10X42 ED BINOCULARS (62894)

Premium optical features including extra-low dispersion glass make the Pentax SD 10x42 ED Binocular a great choice for all-around use. You'll see sharp details of distant objects with the 10x magnifying power, and the 42mm objective lenses gather plenty of light for a bright image even in low-light conditions including at dusk, dawn, or under deep cover. The ED glass corrects for chromatic aberration to ensure accurate colours and high contrast, and fully antireflective-coated optics maximize light transmission through the entire optical path to make views appear bright and crisp.

Complementing the optical performance is a housing that is built for a lifetime of rugged outdoor use. The chassis is made of grippy, comfortable-to-hold thermoplastic elastomer resin. The optical tubes are nitrogen filled to resist internal fogging from sudden temperature changes. With the optional TP-3 adapter, you can mount the binoculars on a tripod for hands-free, no-shake viewing. Whether birding, sightseeing, hunting, exploring the backcountry, or seeing the stage at a music festival, this optic will assure a great view.

Bright, Clear Viewing:

The SD ED provides a bright, clear view of the subject with minimal glare and ghost images, thanks to the application of a full multicoating process to all lens surfaces, and a special coating designed to optimize light transmittance. They also feature large, 42mm diameter objective lenses to deliver a bright, clear view even in unfavourable lighting conditions such as twilight.
