Description
Ideal for longer-range glassing on land and water, the Alpen Optics 10x42 New Shasta Ridge Binoculars are lighter than their predecessor which will help on long hikes and when you're spending a lot of time behind the eyepieces. Anti-reflection fully multicoated optics complement the wide field of view to provide bright, clear, high-contrast views with accurate color rendition from one edge to the other. The 42mm objectives gather all the light needed to keep views crisp and bright in challenging conditions, such as at dawn and dusk, without being overly bulky or cumbersome. Their chassis is nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to be resistant to internal fogging and waterproof to withstand extreme weather, with textured palm pads on the armor to ensure a secure grip in cold and wet weather.Optical Performance 10x magnification brings objects in close for detailed observation42mm objective lenses improve light-gathering ability, even in challenging conditions such as at dawn and dusk, without the bulk or weight of larger objectivesCompact roof prisms help to produce a thinner housing size without compromising performanceBAK4 prisms deliver a round exit pupil and a crisp and clear image with limited edge distortionAnti-reflection fully multicoated optics improve light transmission, color rendition, and contrast315' field of view at 1000 yardsUse and Handling Closed bridge configuration provides a solid and stable platform for the internal focusing mechanismLarge slip-resistant center focus wheel is easy to manipulate in cold and wet weather, or when wearing glovesRight-eye dioptric correction ensures tack-sharp viewsTwist-up rubber eyecups for comfortable use with or without eyewear15.4mm eye relief reduces eye strain and increases viewing comfortComfortable 4.1mm exit pupil will cover most pupils and keep the whole scene in your viewConstruction Details Nitrogen-filled to be resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme changes in weather and environmental conditionsO-ring sealed to be waterproofGreen armor provides a slip-resistant gripTextured palm pads improve grip in cold and wet conditionsStandard 1/4"-20 socket accepts an optional adapter for hands-free use on a tripodWeight: 20 ounces
