DESCRIPTION
Roof-prism binoculars, recognisable because the eye-lens is in-line with the objective lens, afford the user a handy and compact device that is intrinsically more resistant to wear and damage caused by use or abuse than the older porro-prism design binoculars (characterised by “shoulders” that place the objective lens out of line with the eye-lens). When considering a roof-prism binocular look for one that is fully multi-coated and has phase-coated prisms to ensure the instrument has the best image that modern optics technology can produce.
These binoculars are small and light, which makes them ideal to carry with you on hikes etc. BaK4 prisms transmit more light and produce wide-angle images. Black rubber covering reduces the chance of damage to the finish and the internal components. Multi-coated optics transmit more light than regular lens coatings, and reduce image flare and increases image contrast. The anti reflective coating and phase coating on the prisms result in a bright, clear, sharp and colour-true image. Internal focus mechanism makes this binocular impervious to water and dirt ingress, and less likely to be damaged by knocks and bumps. When retracted the extendable eyecups give a full field of view when used with spectacles.
