Alpen Optics

Outfitted with a magnification and objective lens combination preferred by hunters, birders, and outdoor enthusiasts, the Alpen Optics 8x42 Wings Waterproof Binoculars will be your go-to optic for all outdoor activities in any weather conditions. 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 wide field of view helps to reduce side-to-side head movement while also being designed to deliver both a long eye relief and wide exit pupil three factors that make long duration glassing comfortable. Utilizing an open bridge with dual hinges helps to reduce weight while providing ample room to wrap your hands completely around the optical tubes for a better grip.Optical Performance Moderate 8x magnification brings subjects in for close observation without narrowing the field of view or exit pupil42mm 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 contrastShort 8.2-foot close focus distance is ideal for making detailed observations of small subjects like birds, bees, insects, flora & fauna at feeders and flower bedsWide apparent angle of view minimizes the need for side-to-side head movement to see the landscape or a playing fieldSpacious 406' field of view at 1000 yardsUse and Handling Open bridge configuration reduces weight without sacrificing stabilityLarge, 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 eyewearLong 17.3mm eye relief reduces eye strain and increases viewing comfortWide 5.25mm exit pupil will cover most pupils and keep the whole scene in your viewConstruction Details Bridge design provides more gripping surface for steadier handlingNitrogen-filled to be resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme changes in weather and environmental conditionsO-ring sealed to be waterproofTextured armoring with improve grip in cold and wet conditionsStandard 1/4"-20 socket accepts an optional adapter for hands-free use on a tripodWeight: 35.2 ounces
