Description
The black 16x42 Lucid View Binocular from Barska is a versatile optic that is ideal when you're looking for powerful magnification while maintaining lightweight portability and carrying comfort. The Lucid View binocular features BK7 roof prisms and blue-tinted fully coated optics that work together to maximise light transmission. Specifically the blue lens tint increases light transmission and helps to reduce glare, while preserving your ability to accurately see colours. The larger objectives help to boost the binocular's low-light performance past what smaller models can resolve, and a short 5.5' close focus distance lets you make detailed observations of small subjects like hummingbirds, butterflies, or insects at short ranges.
The dual-hinge design allows the optical tubes to fold under the bridge to give them a compact form-factor that easily fits in a pocket, purse, or bag when closed. Ergonomic and shock absorbing black rubber armouring with a firm grip serve up a secure and comfortable hold with added shock-resistance. This Lucid View has a black finish and includes a carrying case and neck strap. Whether hiking, bird watching, or hunting, this binocular has a compact convenience that's worth carrying along.
