Pentax Sport Optics Binocular Roundup
Hawke Sports Optics' black 8x32 Endurance Binoculars feature phase-corrected BAK4 roof prisms, extra-low-dispersion (ED) glass, and anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics to produce a versatile and capable optic that produces bright and clear high-contrast images with true color rendition and virtually no color-fringing. These optical features help to offset the relatively small 32mm objectives and help to boost their low-light performance. With less noticeable handshake versus more powerful binoculars, this combination of optics and objectives make the Endurance binoculars ideally suited for most outdoor activities from hunting, to birding, to sporting events
Complementing the optical performance are construction details that make the binoculars durable and comfortable to use. The chassis is made from a polycarbonate that is impact and corrosion-resistant. They ar also temperature-resistant, so the optical tubes won't expand and contract with temperature fluctuation, which over time can cause the optics to move out of collimation; preventing the binoculars from being able to achieve a sharp focus. The optical tubes are wrapped with rubber armoring which not only protects them from drops and impacts, they also gives the binoculars a slip-resistant grip - especially in cold and wet weather. Their optical tubes are nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to be water and fogproof - especially in extreme weather conditions. A right-eye diopter adjustment allows the binoculars to be customized to most people's needs, and twist-up eyecups mean that they can be comfortably used with or without eye wear.
