DESCRIPTION
The Swarovski EL Swarovision PRO 8.5x42 Binoculars raise the bar with improved handling and comfort. The optical system features phase-coated BaK-4 prisms boasting 91% light transmission, coated with Swaro-Top, an anti-reflective coating that further increase light transmission, and Swaro-Bright coatings which significantly improve brightness and color reproduction. Additionally, Swarodur coatings enhance scratch resistance while Swaro-Clean coatings reduce surface energy to make cleaning the lens much simpler. The new strap connector rotates making it much more versatile than the previous rubber hook. The quick catch strap is much more practical now as it features a twist locking action for adjustment. Additionally the newly redesigned objective lens covers now have a click-mechanism for easier, more secure attachment. The construction is waterproof and fogproof for ruggedness.
