Great binoculars

The binoculars are so nice. Focusing is quick and easy. My only complaint is the eye cover does not have an attachment to the strap or binoculars and makes it easy to misplace

Great binoculars

By susan m.

The binoculars are so nice. Focusing is quick and easy. My only complaint is the eye cover does not have an attachment to the strap or binoculars and makes it easy to misplace

You'll discover unparalleled clarity and color accuracy with the 8x42 Midas G2 UHD Waterproof Roof Prism Binoculars, a true testament to optical excellence. These binoculars are engineered with Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) Glass, which minimizes chromatic aberration, ensuring images are not only clear but also free from color fringing. The result is a sharp, high-definition viewing experience that brings the world closer to your eyes.

The ESP (Enhanced Spectral Prism) Dielectric Coating is a sophisticated multi-layer prism coating that reflects over 99% of light to your eyes, offering a bright, vivid image with authentic color reproduction. This feature, combined with the high-quality BaK-4 prisms, maximizes light transmission, enhancing your viewing experience even in low-light conditions.

Constructed with a lightweight yet durable magnesium alloy chassis, these binoculars provide the robustness of a metal frame while reducing weight by up to 35%. This makes the Midas G2 UHD binoculars not only sturdy but also comfortable to hold during extended periods of use.

The exterior lenses are fortified with an XPL (Xtra Protective Layer) Coating, which acts as a barrier against dirt, oil, and scratches, ensuring your lenses remain in pristine condition even in the most challenging environments. The phase-corrected prisms enhance image contrast, resolution, and color fidelity, delivering a viewing experience that is both bright and razor-sharp.

Advanced Fully Multi-Coated lenses optimize light transmission across the entire visible spectrum, providing you with images that are bright and true to color. The long eye relief is a significant advantage for eyeglass wearers, allowing the full field of view without the need to remove glasses.

For those who enjoy observing the finer details of nature, the close focus feature is indispensable, enabling you to appreciate the beauty of butterflies or the intricate patterns on insects from a short distance. The twist-up eyecups with intermediate stops can be adjusted to your personal preference, ensuring comfortable viewing with or without eyeglasses.

These binoculars are designed to withstand the elements, being waterproof and ready to face the harshest weather conditions or accidental submersion. The argon purging not only enhances waterproofing but also ensures thermal stability, preventing internal fogging across temperature changes.

With an impressive 8.1-degree angle of view, the 8x42 Midas G2 UHD binoculars invite you to immerse yourself in the great outdoors, whether you're bird watching, hiking, or attending outdoor events. Experience the world with exceptional clarity and comfort, knowing that your Midas G2 UHD binoculars are built to accompany you on every adventure.
