Strong magnification and large objective lenses allow these black and silver 8x42 Passion SD Binoculars from GPO USA to deliver the high light transmission necessary for bright, clear views. The 8x magnification gives you a good look at the details of distant subjects, while still generating a broad 366' field of view and avoiding the jittery view common to higher-magnification optics. The lenses are fully multicoated with GPObright antireflection film and the Schmidt-Pechan roof prisms are treated with dieletric coating, both designed to enhance color and contrast while minimizing color fringing. The lightweight magnesium body is covered with rubber armoring for durability and a comfortable grip. Birders will appreciate the 9.8' close focus.
