With lens coatings that help to produce bright and clear views—even if you get caught in an unexpected shower—the Opticron 8x24 Traveler BGA Binoculars have design elements that make them well suited to travel, watching sports, or going to the theater.
Phase-correcting and highly reflective Oasis prism coatings on the BAK4 roof prism system maximise light throughput and minimise diffraction, ensuring views are as bright as possible with sharp contrast and crisp clarity. The lenses are anti-reflection fully multi-coated to further improve light transmission. The combination of lens and prism coatings ensure views are bright and clear with accurate color rendition.
Designed for going wherever your travels take you, the housing is watertight and nitrogen filled, so they won't fog up from temperature change. They are further equipped with twist-up eyecups to accommodate eyeglasses and an adjustable diopter to compensate for prescription eyewear. The center focus knob is easy to reach so you can comfortably achieve a tack-sharp image. Their bridge is built with two hinges that allow the optical tubes to fold and tuck under, minimizing their footprint to fit into just about any pocket, pack, or purse. Extremely compact and weighing just 8.5 ounces, these binoculars will be your constant companion in the field, at the stadium, or jet-setting around the world.
