Setting the standard in ergonomics and optics, the Swarovksi 10x42 WB EL Binocular is a roof prism binocular that's an optically brilliant fortress for the world to envy.  Its 'bridgeless' design, the world's first, makes it much easier to handhold steady.  Ardent birdwatchers often report that the 10x42 EL is as easily handheld as most other 8x bincoulars.  Despite this major innovation, the 10x42 WB EL remains as incredibly strong as one would expect from this brand.  Watertight to 13' and providing simply remarkable color reproduction, the 10x42 WB EL is to be seriously considered by anyone whom demands the best.

Swarovski now includes their Snap Shot digiscoping adapter with the 10x42 WB EL, allowing you to quickly affix a digital camera to the eyepiece without any screws or other hardware that's easily lost in the field.

Best Uses

Comments about Swarovski 10x42 WB EL Binocular:

These are sturdy well made binoculars which are used for game and bird watching. The clarity and the light gathering ability enhances the ability of the user to identify species.We have been able to use even at dusk and dawn as it enhances the normal vision.

This is the second pair we have purchased. Others have commented on the grip but I have very large hands and have experienced no problem. The current model comes with a digital camera attachment should you wish to use it to take photos. It is probably superfluous for those of us who use SLR's with Long lenses.

This is a great and classic product with a lifetime guarantee.

    I use these for birding. Excellent optics, and comfortable to hold. I would get the suspenders (which hold it around the back) if you are going to be carrying these for hours.
