Additional details
Description
The Kite FALCO 8x42 binoculars deliver premium optical excellence with Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass that eliminates chromatic aberration for razor-sharp, color-true images. Fully multi-coated lenses and dielectric-coated BaK-4 roof prisms achieve 92% light transmission, ensuring bright views even in low light. Specifications include 8x magnification, 42mm objective lenses, 8.1° field of view (142m at 1000m), 17.6mm eye relief, 5.25mm exit pupil, and 2m close focus—perfect for birding, wildlife observation, and hunting. The magnesium alloy chassis weighs only 705g, measures 137mm long, and is waterproof to 5m depth while nitrogen-purged for fog-proof reliability. Twist-up eyecups support glasswearers, and rubber armoring provides a secure grip in all conditions.
