Exceptional ED Optical Performance

At the heart of the PASSION™ ED 8x42 binoculars are Extra-low Dispersion (ED) lenses, combined with advanced multi-layer lens coatings. This optical system significantly reduces chromatic aberration while maximising light transmission, delivering:

• Crisp, high-contrast images

• Excellent colour fidelity

• Sharp detail across a wide field of view

• Strong low-light performance at dawn and dusk

The 8x magnification provides a steady, immersive view that’s perfect for tracking moving wildlife while maintaining excellent image stability.

Wide Field of View & Close-Focus Versatility

Carefully optimised optics provide an expansive, easy-to-scan field of view with impressive edge-to-edge sharpness. The shortened close-focus distance allows you to observe nearby subjects in fine detail—ideal for butterflies, insects, and close woodland encounters.

Lightweight Magnesium Housing – Built for the Outdoors

Unlike many binoculars in this class, the PASSION™ ED 8x42 features a full magnesium housing, offering superior strength while keeping overall weight low. This makes them comfortable for extended use and highly resistant to the knocks and scrapes of outdoor life.
