All Round Season Spotting

Equipped with ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass objectives, they reduce chromatic aberration and deliver images that are bright, sharp, and rich in natural colour. Even at higher magnifications, the wide-angle optical system ensures a generous field of view, making it easy to track moving subjects or scan expansive landscapes. The fully multi-coated optics work in harmony with phase-corrected roof prisms and advanced Oasis-C+ coatings to maximise light transmission and maintain contrast, even in lower light conditions.

LightWeight Build For All Weather Conditions

The binoculars are built around a lightweight yet durable polycarbonate chassis, finished with a textured natural rubber armour that provides both grip and impact protection. Their nitrogen-filled design is fully waterproof and fog-resistant, ensuring reliable performance in all weather conditions — from humid forests to windswept hillsides.

Long Eye Relief for All Focus Ranges

Designed with comfort in mind, the Discovery WA ED 10x42 features long eye relief for effortless use with glasses, and twist-up retractable eyecups for quick and precise adjustment. With a close focusing distance of just 1.5 metres, they’re just as capable of capturing fine detail up close as they are at long range.

Whether you’re tracking distant wildlife or studying butterflies in your garden, these binoculars offer premium performance in a compact, easy-to-carry design.

Understanding: Magnification

Understanding magnification, typically denoted by a number followed by an "x" (e.g., 8x42), is essential for choosing binoculars suited to specific activities like birdwatching, hunting, or stargazing.

Higher magnification offers a closer view but may sacrifice field of view and stability, while lower magnification provides a wider field of view and is generally easier to stabilize but sacrifices detailed observation of distant objects

Understanding: Field of View

Field of view refers to the width of the area visible through the binoculars at a specific distance. A wider field of view allows you to observe more of your surroundings, making it ideal for activities like birdwatching or sports events where tracking fast-moving subjects is essential.

Understanding: Objective Lens Diameter

The objective lens diameter determines how much light the binoculars can gather, directly impacting image brightness and clarity, especially in low-light conditions. A larger objective lens diameter results in brighter and clearer images, making it ideal for activities such as stargazing or wildlife observation at dawn or dusk. However, larger objective lenses also mean heavier and bulkier binoculars, which may not be suitable for all users, especially for long periods of use or travel.
