Summer Binocular Buying Guide
The 8x32 Endeavor ED Binoculars from Vanguard feature a nitrogen-filled housing and extra-low dispersion (ED) glass elements, equipping this optic for outdoor performance in low light and harsh weather conditions. This configuration from the Endeavor series has 8x magnification and a 6.6' minimum focus distance that is impressive for midrange binoculars. Their close focus capability, in addition to a long 17.5mm eye relief and wide 58° apparent viewing angle, make these 8x binoculars ready to handle almost any glassing task, including birding and hunting.
Vanguard outfitted the Endeavor ED binoculars with a high-transmission optical path that transmits bright images with minimal fringing and enhanced contrast. Complementing the multi-coated ED lenses are the V-Max and emerald coatings, which increase light transmission and enhance the full spectrum of color, especially the natural shades of green. The phase-corrected BAK4 prisms render crisp details and maximum color fidelity. The resulting view is saturated with color and sharp right up to the edge of the binoculars' field of view.
A rubber-armored and weather-sealed housing helps the Endeavor ED deliver reliable performance rain or shine. The slip-resistant textured rubber grip is also applied to the center focus wheel, which will come in handy when attempting fine focus adjustments while wearing gloves or with wet hands. Twist-up rubber eyecups, flip-down objective covers, and an ergonomic dual-bridge design add user-friendly handling features to match the Endeavor ED binoculars' premium optics.
