Olympus 8x42 EXPS I Binocular - Black
The Olympus 8x42 EXPS I binoculars are a great choice for everyday general use. They offer a reasonable 8x magnification combined with a wide 42mm objective lens diameter which provides an apparent field of view of 52°. With a rubber-coated construction and a long eye relief, the binos are comfortable to use and feature a large focusing dial for improved control. Binoculars with 8x magnification, like the Olympus 8x42 EXPS I model, provide an excellent balance that can bring far away subjects closer, while at the same time making them easier to find. This is especially useful when following moving birds or animals, helping you to track them without getting lost and also reducing shaking. The objective lens on a pair of binoculars defines how wide the field of your view is as well as the relative brightness. At 24mm the 8x42 binoculars are able to collect more light allowing them to be used in darker conditions.
The Olympus 8 x 42 EXPS I binoculars are designed to be comfortable and ergonomic with rubber-coated body construction and a long 18mm eye relief that makes them perfect for people who wear glasses. A large control knob between the eyecups allows easy changing of the focus and an integrated dioptric adjustment allows correction for individual eyesight. Fully multi-coated lenses maintain brightness and contrast by controlling reflections to improve the quality of light transmission. This combined with the UV coating ensures that you appreciate the clearest view possible. Using a porro design, the binoculars have BaK-4 prisms, considered to be the best type of porro prisms because of their ability to produce clear images. The BaK-4 Prisms have a high index and are designed to stop internal light scattering to enhance sharpness.
Designed for powerful performance in the great outdoors, the Olympus EXPS I series features fully multi-coated lenses and BaK-4 prisms so whether you're watching a bird in flight or simply checking out the surrounding terrain, you'll be provided with outstanding light-gathering power for bright, clear images and viewing at any time
Long eye relief, adjustable eyepieces, large focusing knob, rubber-encased body, and sleek design provide both functionality and style
The multi-layer coating system removes glare, cuts UV rays, and generates a bright, clear image
