New Fully-multi-coated optics
Fully multi-coated lenses serve the essential purpose of maximising the amount of light passing through a lens, thereby prevent flare and ghosting from interfering with your view. PeNtAX applies multiple layers of coatings to every surface of every element and prism in the full sport Optics line-up. these fully-multi-coated optics assure the maximum light transmission resulting in a clear, crisp view of the world.
PENTAX Waterproofing
PeNtAX waterproof products are fully sealed and purged with laboratory grade nitrogen to provide a fog proof view in the harshest weather conditions. With a JIs Class 6 rating, PeNtAX waterproof binoculars can even be submerged in up to 3 feet of water.
Nitrogen purged
Nitrogen is a chemical element and a colourless, odourless and tasteless gas. It contains very little humidity and is therefore used to “purge” binoculars and spotting scopes of the high humidity air that is part of our environment. due to the low humidity factor, nitrogen prevents condensation from forming on the internal lenses of optical instruments during phases of rapid temperature change. Furthermore, because nitrogen is purged into the optical instrument at slightly above atmospheric pressure, dust and other miniscule particles are prevented from entering the housing.
Long eye relief design
the long eye relief offered in all PeNtAX sport Optics allows the viewer to see the entire field of view clearly and effortlessly. This is especially beneficial to eyeglass wearers, and allows viewing for extended periods of time without added eye strain.
Other Features
Helicoid four-stop eyepiece rings that permit fine adjustment for maximum viewing comfort.
Exterior rubber coating that provides the binoculars with superb resistance to shocks and impacts.
A minimum focusing distance of three meters for a sharp view of close- range subjects
Easy mounting on a tripod, in combination with the optional tripod Adapter N or tP-3
Rain-shielding eyepiece rings to prevent the intrusion of rain and dust
