Viking Peregrine MKII ED 8x42 Binocular

8x42: best all-round proposition, with a wide view, 42mm objectives and excellent close focus. The Viking Peregrine MKII ED 8x42 Binoculars are an excellent all-round choice for birdwatching and wildlife observation, combining a wide, bright view with premium ED optics and robust construction. The magnesium body and tactile rubberised armour provide a reassuring, comfortable feel in the hand, while intuitive controls make them easy to use throughout a day in the field. Premium ED objective lenses with Flat Field optics help produce bright, sharp images, including in the more challenging light of dawn and dusk. Full Broadband Multi-coated lenses and phase and dielectric-coated BAK4 prisms combine to provide superb edge-to-edge clarity, helping reveal fine feather detail and natural views of birds and wildlife. With 8x magnification and 42mm objective lenses, the Peregrine MKII 8x42 delivers a very wide 140m field of view at 1,000m, making it particularly effective for scanning wetlands, watching woodland birds and following wildlife on the move. An impressive 1.5m close focus also makes it well suited to observing nearby garden birds, butterflies and dragonflies.
