- Model: Orion UltraView - Binoculars 8 x 42 WA - wide angle - porro
Review Orion UltraView - Binoculars 8 x 42 WA - wide angle - porro / Orion:Eyeglass wearers know how frustrating it can be using binoculars. You have to take your glasses off with one hand and hold the binocular up to your eyes with the other. Then, you must lower the binocular and replace your glasses to scan the scene again with just your eyes. Playing this on-and-off game gets pretty annoying. You've tried leaving your eyeglasses on, but it's like looking through a keyhole: you can't see the whole field of view. And you've tried to get by without your glasses, but everything in the distance is too blurry. Orion UltraViews are the answer. They are the ultimate in eyeglass- and sunglass-friendly binoculars! Their extra-long 22mm eye relief allows the full field of view to be seen with eyeglasses on, simply by retracting the twist-lock rubber eyecups. That's a real luxury!UltraView binoculars are also long on optical quality. Made exclusively for Orion by Japan's largest manufacturer of high-quality optics, UltraViews feature the finest BAK-4 glass prisms, and lenses finely ground and polished to exacting specifications. [+]All lens and prism air-to-glass surfaces are fully multi-coated, providing much higher light transmission than can be achieved with the standard coatings offered on most other binoculars. Colors are pure and images are tack-sharp right out to the edges. The large center focus wheel allows quick focusing with just a fingertip. The UltraViews' cast alloy metal construction holds up admirably under extensive field use. Black rubber armoring protects the binoculars against bumps and scratches, and finger grooves provide a sure grip. The UltraView 8x42 WA binocular is ideal for birding, nature observation, and traveling. Delightfully wide 8. 2? field of view. Birders also love the exceptionally close focus of 12'. 8x magnification, 7mm exit pupil, extra-long 22mm eye relief. |

Review Brunton Eterna Midsize Camouflage Binoculars (Mossy Oak, 10 X 32) / Brunton F-E1032-CAMO:If it's not broken, don't fix it, right? Maybe, unless you're always striving to improve, like Brunton's tireless team of designers and engineers. One of the most popular models, the Eterna Mid Size was completely redesigned this year to further its already superb performance features. New for this year, the Mid Size boasts a multi-step eye relief system that allows for comfortable viewing, even with eyeglasses. State-of-the-art multi-coatings give the Mid Size a leg-up on reflective sunlight and are responsible for sharpening edges and protecting colors. The sleek new ergonomic body armor has also been reworked to enhance the appeal for a new generation of Brunton binoculars. The original Eterna Mid-Size binocular has always been one of Brunton's most popular models, but the company-never one to rest on its laurels-decided that great wasn't good enough. Thus, the Mid-Size underwent a complete redesign to improve its already formidable collection of features. Among the new options are a multi-step eye relief system that allows for comfortable viewing even while wearing eyeglasses, and state-of-the-art phase and multi-coatings that give the Mid-Size a leg up on reflective sunlight. The coatings also help sharpen edges and protect colors, giving users a crisp resolution when peering through the 32mm objective lenses. Add in a sleek new ergonomic body armor that's been reworked to enhance the appeal for a new generation of Brunton users and you have an ideal binocular for folks who don't need a super-powerful optic but do value high-quality results. [+]Specifications range from 10x power that delivers a 315-foot field of view at 1,000 yards to a 15mm long eye relief to a 3. 2mm exit pupil. The focus system, meanwhile, sharpens images as close as 4 feet. Additional features include high-quality BaK-4 prism glass (made from a higher quality glass that helps produce brighter images and high edge-to-edge sharpness), tripod and monopod compatibility, and a waterproof and fog-proof housing. All this in a lightweight, easy-to-wield body that weighs a mere 25 ounces. The Eterna Mid-Size binocular measures 5. 4 by 4. 8 by 2 inches (WxHxD) and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

The larger the exit pupil, the brighter the image. To determine the size, divide the objective lens diameter by the power (an 8x32 model has an exit pupil of 4mm). Eye Relief-The distance a binocular can be held away from the eye and still present the full field-of-view. Extended or long eye relief reduces eyestrain and is ideal for eyeglass wearers. Field-of-View (F. O. V. )-The side-to-side measurement of the circular viewing field or subject area, defined by the width in feet or meters of the area visible at 1000 yards or meters. A wide-angle binocular features a wide field-of-view and is better for following action. Generally, the higher the magnification, the narrower the field-of-view. |

The BD42 is designed to be as compact and light as possible, without compromising high performance. With an attractive aesthetic design, available in 8x or 10x magnification. Kowa's roof prism binoculars use the Schmidt-Pechan prisms. One surface of Pechan prism does not provide total reflection, so we have applied a highly reflective multi-coating of dielectrics. This allows for a much higher reflectivity than with coatings of a silver or optically-enhanced aluminum, offering a reflectance of 99% or higher across the entire visible spectrum (400 to 700nm). Not only does this provide bright and sharp images, but accurate color reproduction is also achieved. Furthermore, the roof surface of the Schmidt prism is phase coated (phase correction coated) to prevent the loss of contrast and image resolution. The housing is waterproof and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the lens from fogging. The lightweight yet robust housing is designed to fit comfortably into your hands.

All the lenses and prisms in the BD42-10-CAM binoculars are manufactured with multi-layered coating, ensuring a bright and clear visual range, while the roof prism has phase correction coating and a highly reflective aluminum coating to ensure sharp images and accurate color reproduction. Through the use of a Bak4 prism these Kowa binoculars are able to give you bright, clear images all the way to the edge of the objective lens. Kowa's BD42-10-CAM roof prism uses the schmidt-Pechan prism, where one surface of the Pechan prism does not provide total reflection, so they have applied a highly reflective multi-coating of dielectrics, called a C3 coating. This allows for a much higher reflectivity than with coatings of silver or optically-enhanced aluminum, offering a reflectance of 99-percent or higher across the entire visible spectrum of 400 to 700 millimeters. Not only does this increase the brightness and sharpness of the images, but ensures an accurate color reproduction is also achieved. Furthermore, the roof surface of the Schmidt prism is phase coated (phase correction coated) to prevent the loss of contrast and image resolution. The stylish camouflage housing of the Kowa BD42-10-CAM is waterproof and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the lens from fogging, which allows these binoculars to be used in the rain and other harsh weather conditions. At the same time, these binoculars feature easy-to-use, twist-up eyecups with a large 17. 6-millimeter eye-relief suitable for both eyeglass wearers and non-eyeglass wearers.
