This 8x42 model is designed for hunters and hikers who prioritize a wide field of view. The 8x magnification makes it easier to follow moving animals and provides a very stable image. The 42mm lenses offer a good balance of size and light transmission for use throughout the day.

The construction includes high-density glass that aims to provide impressive resolution and color fidelity. The lenses are treated with multiple layers of anti-reflective coatings to ensure the view remains bright. The body is rugged and waterproof, designed to withstand the typical wear and tear of a hunting trip.

These listings feature a locking diopter on this model, which prevents your settings from accidentally changing while you move. The eyecups twist up and down to provide comfortable eye relief for all users. It is a reliable piece of equipment for anyone who needs clear optics in a portable package.
