EL 8.5 X 42 FIELD PRO

The SWAROVSKI OPTIK EL 8.5x42 with the FieldPro package sets the standard for premium birding and hunting binoculars. Its 8.5x magnification preserves a wide field of view and a large exit pupil while limiting visible hand-shake. Field-flattener lenses deliver a virtually flat image with perfect edge-to-edge sharpness, while HD lenses containing fluoride reduce colour fringing to an absolute minimum, combined with the legendary EL wrap-around grip and the refined comfort of the FieldPro carrying system.
