Pentax 8x25 A-Series AD WP Compact Binocular

<p>Designed for the nature enthusiast who wants to pack light without sacrificing image quality, the <strong>Pentax 8x25 A-Series AD WP Compact Binocular</strong> delivers bright, clear images while weighing in at just 10.6 ounces. Their BAK4 roof prisms are phase corrected to improve image contrast and enhance colour rendition. All of the optics are anti-reflection and fully multi-coated to maximise light transmission, producing the brightest views possible.</p><p>An asymmetrical hinge design enables the binocular to be folded up much smaller than typical centre-hinged optics. In order to cut weight, the housing is made of corrosion- and impact-resistant fiberglass-reinforced polycarbonate polymer. The material is also temperature resistant, allowing for its use in extreme climates while reducing expansion and contraction that wide temperature swings can cause (and which can make the optical components move out of collimation over time). Its optical tubes are nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed, making them submersible to 3.3 feet as well as fogproof in all weather conditions.</p><p><strong>Optical Performance</strong></p><ul><li>8x magnification</li><li>25mm objective lenses</li><li>BAK4 roof prisms</li><li>Phase-corrected prism coatings enhance contrast and improve colour rendition</li><li>Anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics</li><li>288.8' field of view at 1000 yards</li><li>44&deg; angle of view</li></ul> <p><strong>Use and Handling</strong></p><ul><li>Asymmetrical hinge design enables ultra-compact stowage</li><li>Closed bridge configuration</li><li>Knurled centre focusing wheel</li><li>Twist-up eyecups for use with or without eyewear</li><li>21mm eye relief, 3.1mm exit pupil</li></ul> <p><strong>Construction Details</strong></p><ul><li>Lightweight fibreglass-reinforced polycarbonate housing</li><li>Housing is corrosion, temperature, and impact resistant</li><li>Nitrogen filled for fogproof performance; submersible to 3.3' (1m)</li><li>Rubberised armouring protects against impacts and provides slip-resistant grip</li><li>Inner focusing mechanism provides smooth focus while preserving waterproof seals</li><li>Weighs in at just 10.6 oz</li></ul>
