Bushnell 8x42 Forge Binoculars (Terrain Brown)(BF842T)

With a magnification and objective lens size combination that is populararound the world for its versatility, the brown Bushnell 8x42 ForgeBinoculars are ideal for most of your glassing needs–from hunting& birdwatching to hiking & camping, enjoying sporting events, or justsightseeing around town.

To deliver peak performance, they are outfitted withextra-low dispersion (ED) glass, broadband anti-reflection fully multicoatedoptics, dielectric-coated and phase-corrected BAK4 Abbe-Koenig roof prisms, andprotective exterior lens coatings that work together to maximize lighttransmission through the entire light path without distortion or color fringingacross its expansive field of view. The results are bright, sharp, and clearhigh-contrast views with accurate color fidelity and crisp resolution acrossthe entire visual spectrum, even in challenging conditions.

Optical Performance

• Moderate 8x magnification brings subjects in close for viewing without sacrificing field of view, exit pupil, or eye relief
• 42mm objective lenses draw in the amount of light required to ensure views stay bright and clear in all light conditions
• Compact roof prisms help to maintain a slim form factor for easier handling and carrying
• BAK4 prism glass delivers a round exit pupil and a crisp and clear image with limited edge distortion
• PC3 phase-correcting prism coatings eliminate internal interference to improve color and contrast
• Dielectric prism coatings boost surface reflectivity to greater than 99% for maximum light transmission through the prism with minimal loss and diffraction
• Extra-low dispersion (ED) glass lens elements reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations for increased contrast and improved color rendition and sharpness without distortion across the entire field of view
• Broadband anti-reflection fully multicoated optics maximize light transmission and improve contrast and color fidelity across the entire visible spectrum
• Proprietary EXO Barrier exterior lens coatings allow oil, dirt, and sap to be cleaned off without leaving smudges or residue
• Ultra-wide apparent angle of view presents an immersive observational experience that eliminates the need for excessive side-to-side head movement to see the terrain
• Spacious 426-foot field of view at 1000 yards

Use and Handling

• Open-bridge/dual-hinge design reduces weight without sacrificing stability and offers more gripping surface for steadier handling
• Large slip-resistant center focusing wheel is easy to manipulate in cold and wet weather, even while wearing gloves
• Locking right-eye dioptric correction allows user to compensate for optical prescription to produce sharper views with the ability to set it in place to avoid accidental adjustment
• Twist-up eyecups for easy use with or without eyewear
• Standard 1/4"-20 socket under front bridge hinge allows the use of optional adapters to mount the optic onto a tripod for hands-free use
• Long 19mm eye relief improves viewing comfortable while minimizing eye strain
• 5.25mm exit pupil will cover most pupils as they open and dilate in low-light conditions, providing clearer views
