Description: | Scenix binoculars have always offered superior optical and mechanical quality compared to brands you find at most retail stores. And now Scenix binoculars are even better, incorporating porro prisms made from high-grade BAK-4 optical glass. These are the same prisms found in binoculars that sell for as much as four times the price.
You just can’t beat Scenix for all-around value. Common, low-priced “mass market” binoculars have to cut corners by coating only one or two visible optical surfaces with antireflection coatings (and leaving many uncoated), by allowing looser tolerances on optical matching and alignment, and by employing poor-quality mechanical components.
Scenix binoculars are different. Every air-to-glass surface is antireflection coated, and the objective lenses are even multi-coated for additional light transmission. And we don’t use gimmicky “ruby” coatings like you find on some brands, which only serve to turn images green!
The housings are constructed of sturdy metal, not plastic, and are armored with protective rubber. The large center focusing mechanism is the same one found on many more expensive binoculars.
Scenix binoculars are rugged and reliable, delivering sharp images on demand. Each includes a vinyl carrying case, lens caps, and deluxe wide neck strap. All accept a tripod L-adapter (sold separately). Two-year limited warranty.
Scenix 8x40 Wide Angle Ideal nature and sports binocular with an uncommonly wide 9° field of view to take in more of the action. Close focuses to 17'. Weighs 24 oz.
Scenix 7x50 Wonderful for binocular astronomy as well as for scenic daytime viewing and hunting. Bright 7mm exit pupil and 7.1° field of view. Weighs 28 oz.
Scenix 10x50 Wide Angle Perfect higher-power astro binocular, equally well suited for long-distance terrestrial observing. Extra wide angle 7° field. Weighs 28 oz.
Scenix 12x50 Wide Angle If you¼ve been searching for a high-power quality binocular that's incredibly affordable, here it is! Twelve-times magnification gets you “up close and personal†with your viewing target. Still, the exit pupil is a generous 4mm-plus, so the images will be plenty bright. Wide 6° field of view. At this high power, a tripod (and mounting adapter) is recommended for steady images. Weighs 28 oz.
