Designed as a multi-purpose outdoor optic, the black 10x32 Endurance ED Binoculars from Hawke do not lag in quality behind the forerunners. The optics feature high-performance Extra-Low-Dispersion glass to deliver crisp, true-color images of breathtaking landscapes, vistas, or cityscapes. With the fully multi-coated optics and high-resolution (Hi-Res) phase-coated BAK4 roof prisms, you will get an excellent feeling of transparency with the optical glass and high resolution, high contrast images. The 32mm objectives are best suited for daylight conditions, but will perform well in mornings or evenings. And whether you focus on close-up or faraway scenery, you can count on the wide 58° apparent angle of view to deliver a sizeable edge-to-edge field. Beyond optical highlights, the binoculars provide a convenient center focusing and a diopter ring on the right tube, generous interpupillary range, and a short 6.6' minimum focus distance.
With the ultra-lightweight and durable polycarbonate housing, you do not have to worry about accidentally exposing the binoculars to moisture or even dropping them into a water reservoir because they are nitrogen-filled to be water and fogproof. The body features an aesthetically appealing, ergonomic design. Their black leatherette rubber armoring offers a secure hold and a pleasant handling experience, with the oversized center focusing knob providing smooth adjustments. To help you with focusing and correcting for dioptric differences, the oversized focus knob and the diopter ring are knurled and can be easily adjustable even when wearing gloves. To accommodate anyone with a comfortable viewing position, the rubber eyecups feature a twist-out click-stop design. Also included are a strap, lens cloth, carry case, and protective lens caps.
