Kowa 8x32 BD II XD Wide-Angle Binoculars

Offering a moderate magnification with a generous field of view and long eye relief - the Kowa 8x32 BD II XD Wide-Angle Binoculars provide the performance that avid birders - hunters - and world travelers demand without the bulk of full-sized modelsTo improve image quality and offset the light-gathering limitations of the smaller objectives - Kowa employs complementary technologies that include the use of PROMINAR extra-low dispersion glass - anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics - and highly reflective C3 and phase-correction prism coatings that work together to produce crisp - clear - and bright high-contrast images with accurate color rendition across the entire spectrum Added to this performance is an exceptional short close-focus distance - an ultra-wide angle of view - and a comfortable eye relief - which produce an immersive observational experience for any userDesigned for extensive outdoor use - the lightweight magnesium alloy chassis is wrapped in a protective rubber armor with a slip-resistant textured grip to provide secure handling in cold and wet conditions To ensure a compact and highly packable form factor - Kowa utilizes Schmidt-Pechan prisms that allow for slimmer optical tubes but deliver the performance of conventional roof prisms The optical tubes are nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme temperature or humidity changes
