It's hard to imagine a better travel binocular than the Classic 8x42 DCF-TWP. Have you ever missed the action because your cumbersome full-size binocular was too inconvenient to drag along? Remarkably compact and lightweight at just 1.5 lbs. and 4.8 inches long, this binocular is much smaller than most 42mm roof prisms, making it an ideal companion for travel and outdoor activities - yet it still has more than enough aperture to get the job done for either daytime or astronomical use.
We searched long and hard to find a low- to mid-priced roof prism binocular that we felt was was worthy of a place in our lineup and yet didn't break the bank. This is it, and the new 8x42 won't dissapoint on performance. It features triplet objective lenses for outstanding flat-field images. Other features include excellent broadband multi-coatings on all air-to-glass surfaces, plus the addition of special phase coatings on the BaK4 roof prisms for outstanding sharpness. Birders will appreciate the 1.5m close focus distance, and all will enjoy the wide 6.7° field of view and generous 19mm eye relief. If you've been searching for a compact binocular that doesn't sacrifice light-gathering power or performance, this is the binocular you've been looking for.
