Orion Scenix binoculars have always offered superior optical and mechanical quality compared to brands you find at most retail and sporting good stores. Now Scenix binoculars are even better, incorporating porro prisms made from high-grade BAK-4 optical glass. These are the same prisms found in binoculars that sell for four times the price or more than our affordable Scenix models. This Orion Scenix 7×50 binocular is wonderful for binocular astronomy as well as for scenic daytime viewing and hunting. Its bright 7mm exit pupil and 7.1 degree field of view let you enjoy scenic vistas in comfort. The 7×50 Scenix binocular weighs 28 oz. for easy portability. Its housing is constructed of sturdy metal, not plastic, and is armored with protective rubber which is a joy to grip. The large center focusing mechanism is the same one found on many more expensive binoculars, and adjusts smoothly to achieve ideal focus. This 7×50 Orion Scenix binocular is rugged and reliable, delivering sharp images on demand. It includes a vinyl carrying case, lens caps, and a comfortable deluxe wide neck strap. The Scenix 7×50 binocular accepts a tripod L-adapter (sold separately) for use on a tripod, which is recommended for lengthy astronomical viewing sessions.
