Lightweight + Ergonomic Design

A design that lends a high-performance feel, like that of a high-end model, aims to foster a sense of possession, and makes it comfortable for anyone to use. Unnecessary elements have been removed for a minimal size, resulting in an overall sharp impression that produces a sense of high performance and a lightweight form.
Special elastic polymer coating is used to suppress reflections of light for optimal conditions when observing wild animals and birds. A textured design is employed on the grip where fingers rest, improving one’s hold on the binoculars, which, along with the lightweight form, eliminates fatigue when using them for long periods of time. Employing the popular shape of the focus adjustment dial from the high-end models in a larger size makes it easy to accurately focus on objects.

* 8x40S
A Porro prism enables a wider space between the left and right objective lenses, delivering the stereoscopic view unique to binoculars. The high optical technology cultivated on interchangeable lenses results in coating used on all lenses and the prism, along with the use of aspherical lenses.
The overall optical system is designed for minimal chromatic aberration and distortion, resulting in sharp, clear images.
- Minimal chromatic aberration
Clear field of view to the edges of the image
Bright, Wider Field of View

Adoption of a large-diameter objective lens results to bright field of view.
Wide apparent field of view makes it a superior choice for observing moving subjects such as birds, animals, and people playing sports.
ANTI-SLIP POLYMER COATING
Experience the best observation by blending into your surroundings. We’ve incorporated an elastic polymer coating that’s anti-reflective. It’s a durable finish that helps you maintain a secure grip.
LARGE FOCUS ADJUSTMENT DIAL
The easy-to-access focus adjustment dial, also found on Olympus PRO binoculars, provides effortless adjustments for quick and accurate focusing on-the-fly.

SLEEK DESIGN WITH SURE HOLD GRIP

Birds are quick! So are insects, athletes, and cars. Never miss the action with the broad field of view provided by the Explorer Series’ large-diameter objective lenses.
MAGNIFICATION
A magnification factor of 8 provides an image as if you are 8 times closer to the subject. The Explorer Series offers magnifications between 8x and 16x.

FIELD OF VIEW
The field of view is the angle of the viewing field measured in degrees. For each binocular model, the indicated specification reflects the size of the viewing field at a distance of 1000m from the observation point.
EXIT PUPIL
The exit pupil is the diameter of the light visible through the eyepiece. It’s calculated by dividing the objective lens diameter by the magnification factor. An exit pupil of 2mm is adequate for daytime use, while an exit pupil of 5mm to 7mm is appropriate for low light environments. The Explorer Series offers an exit pupil of 5mm.
