Barska Level ED 10x42 Open Bridge Overview

Barska's green 10x42 Level ED Waterproof Binoculars present clear and crisp high-contrast views with accurate color representation across a distortion-free wide field of view. This is accomplished through the use of extra low-dispersion (ED) glass, fully multi-coated optics, and BAK4 prisms to correct chromatic and spherical aberrations and reduce internal light diffraction while improving light transmission. Add to these performance features a short 6' close focus distance and a wide 65° angle of view, users are presented with an immersive observational experience.

To help improve grip strength and overall stability, Barska built this version with an open-bridge that opens the middle of the optic to allow fingers to wrap around the tubes, and dual hinges that support the front and rear of the tubes and keep the barrels parallel and aligned. To withstand the rigors of the trail, the chassis is wrapped in a protective rubber armor that is textured to further ensure a secure slip-resistant grip. The optical tubes are argon-filled and O-ring sealed to provide water and fogproof performance in all weather conditions and temperatures. The combination of optics and construction details make the Level ED binoculars an ideal addition to your kit, whether you're in the woods, on the range, at the stadium, or sightseeing around town.

Barska Level ED 10x42 Open Bridge Reviews

Solid Purchase

By Jaime
Rated 5 out of 5

Upside: I have used my Barska 10x42 Level ED Waterproof Binoculars for birding and other wildlife observations having owned multiple other binoculars of high quality made with expensive glass and in accordance with established, high-end specifications and standards. This Barska ED version cost less, is comfortable in my grip and feels solid. The quality is comparable to other brands costing $500-$1,000. There does not appear to be any compromise on the same, important specs. I am getting the same brightness, definition performance and field reliability I had for binoculars costing hundreds more. Other Considerations: These are full size binoculars (not the giant kind however). They are made with quality materials. As such, they may be experienced as being on the heavy side by some users, particularly those who are frail or elderly or if they are used over extended periods during a long day of hiking and birding. I'm in my mid 60's and in reasonable shape and I seem to do okay with them on extended bird outings. Conclusions: I highly recommend this model to serious wildlife observers. These are not cheap knock-offs. You're getting more than you paid for or a good value; especially if you shop around for a better deal when special buys are made or when sales are available. B&H is a quality vendor having competitive pricing and excellent customer service. Best Wishes
