Image quality 1
When light passes through binoculars, some of its intensity is lost. Each glass element absorbs some of the light, a few percent. But with 10 optical elements, the amount absorbed is significant. It is therefore necessary to apply a treatment to each element to reduce the amount absorbed. But each treatment has a cost. And the more effective the treatment, the more expensive it is. Design is therefore a delicate balance between efficiency and price.
Image quality 2
The binoculars are equipped with a BaK4 prism with silver coating and lenses with FMC coating: Full multi-coated, all surfaces are multi-coated for optimum light transmission.
These 2 elements provide 77% light transmission, excellent contrast and color rendition during the day, and excellent brightness at dusk. The prism provides excellent sharpness for observing details.
Waterproofing
Nitrogen-filled binoculars for waterproofing and internal anti-fogging. Resistant to immersion to a depth of 1 meter for 15 minutes.
Brightness and use
These 500 10x50 binoculars are ideal for regular use in the field to observe wild animals in detail.
Their optical performance means you can observe and hunt until the end of dusk, and the 50 mm lens saves several precious minutes compared with the 42 mm lens.
The x10 magnification and image quality mean you can see the details of the animals you observe.
Warning: with a straight arm, you may feel a slight tremor.
Output pupil
The human pupil varies from 2 to 3 mm during the day, 4 to 5 mm at dusk and 6 to 7 mm in the dark. So it's important to choose binoculars with an exit pupil that covers your entire pupil, to exploit their full brightness to suit your needs. The 10x50s have a 5mm exit pupil, making them ideal for twilight conditions.
Sharpness adjustment for spectacle wearers
Eyecups can be retracted to suit spectacle wearers.
When not wearing glasses, extend the eyecups as far as possible by turning them. With glasses, position the eyecups in the screwed position against the body of the binoculars.
To see the object or animal you are observing clearly, use the central adjustment knob, turning it to the left or right until you obtain a sharp image.
Setting the vision distance between the two eyes
To correct the difference in vision between the 2 eyes:
Close the right eye and use the central focusing wheel to focus on an object some 50 metres away. Once the object is in focus, close the other eye and repeat the operation, this time focusing with the ring near the right eyecup. The deviation is now corrected. There's no need to adjust this ring again in the future.
