Product description

With this Resolux 10.5×70 binocular, you’ll enjoy performance that you simply won’t find in other binoculars. Your first scan of the Milky Way will prove it – pinpoint stars set in bold contrast against the dark background. Gorgeous! The extra-large BAK-4 prisms and advanced multi-coatings on all optical surfaces really drink in the light. The eyepieces focus individually, which yields a sturdier mechanical design than a center-focus mechanism. And with 23mm of eye relief, even eyeglass wearers will see the full field of view. Supple rubber eyecups can fold down, if desired, for more comfortable use while wearing eyeglasses. This Resolux 10.5×70 binocular’ s all-metal housing is armored with thick rubber to ensure a secure, comfortable grip. Each binocular comes with lens caps, heavy-duty tripod adapter, and neck strap. This binocular comes with a foam-lined hard case.

Eyeglass wearers know how frustrating it can be using binoculars. You have to take your glasses off with one hand and hold the binocular up to your eyes with the other. Then, you must lower the binocular and replace your glasses to scan the scene again with just your eyes. Playing this on-and-off game gets pretty annoying. You’ve tried leaving your eyeglasses on, but it’s like looking through a keyhole: you can’t see the whole field of view. And you’ve tried to get by without your glasses, but everything in the distance is too blurry. Orion UltraViews are the answer. They are the ultimate in eyeglass- and sunglass-friendly binoculars! Their extra-long 22mm eye relief allows the full field of view to be seen with eyeglasses on, simply by retracting the twist-lock rubber eyecups. That’s a real luxury! UltraView binoculars are also long on optical quality. Made exclusively for Orion by Japan’s largest manufacturer of high-quality optics, UltraViews feature the finest BAK-4 glass prisms, and lenses finely ground and polished to exacting specifications. All lens and prism air-to-glass surfaces are fully multi-coated, providing much higher light transmission than can be achieved with the standard coatings offered on most other binoculars. Colors are pure and images are tack-sharp right out to the edges. The large center focus wheel allows quick focusing with just a fingertip. The Orion UltraView 8×42 Wide-Angle Binocular is the ideal size for birding, nature observation, and traveling. Delightfully wide 8.2 degree field of view. Birders also love the exceptionally close focus of 12 feet. 8x magnification, 5.3mm exit pupil, extra-long 22mm eye relief. Weighs 27 oz. The Orion UltraView 8×42 binocular comes with a rugged soft field case, objective lens caps, and a deluxe wide neck strap. The binocular has a threaded socket to accept a tripod adapter.

This parallelogram-style mount’s silky smooth motion provides relaxing viewing for hours on end with binoculars as large as 80mm in aperture.
