    8x42 DCF HRc Binocular

    Mfr# 62553 | B&H# PE8X42DCFHRC

    Pentax's DCF series of premium roof prism binoculars are available in a few different variants, to suit a particular combination of needs and budgets.

    There's the basic DCF HR, offering just the brilliant optics of the series, in a non-waterproofed package which shaves a bit off of the weight and price. Next is the DCF HR II, which adds a sleeker design as well as nitrogen purging, and O-ring seals for totally impervious waterproof and fogproof protection. Then there is the world class DCF WP classic, available in four variants---all of absolutely stunning optical quality, as well as being completely fogproof and waterproof. Building upon the strong foundation established by the rest of the DCF series, the Pentax 8x42 DCF HRc upgrades, updates and introduces several features. Additions include central shaft dioptric correction, silver-deposited roof prisms for improved optical performance, and a new lighter-weight, fiber-reinforced polycarbonate housing. The optical formula of the HRc differs from the HR II, and now features four elements in three groups---a refinement upon the HR II's two-element, one-group design.

    Finally, upon the pinnacle rests the flagship of Pentax sport optics: the DCF SP line. These are just a bit bigger than the DCF WP collection, but add some fine tuning, with a spare-no-expense mentality, for those who simply must have ultimate performance and quality.

    • Pentax's 7-layer Super Multi-Coating process assures crisp & bright images
    • Silver-deposited roof prisms reflect more light through the prism glass for a brighter image
    • Ample 21mm of eye relief allows most eyeglass wearers to see entire image area
    • Broad 54-76mm interpupillary adjustment range yields most users an ideal, single-circle image
    • Click-stop ±3 dioptric correction prevents accidental changes
    • Twist-up eyecups with four detented stopping points for different eye socket depths
    • Improved fiber-reinforced polycarbonate body increases strength and rigidity
    • O-Ring sealed & nitrogen purged for total waterproof and fogproof protection
    • Accepts optional tripod adapter for great extended viewing sessions
    • Pentax "Worry Free" Warranty
