Product Info for Vortex Razor HD 8x42mm Roof Prism Binoculars

Vortex Razor HD 8x42 Binoculars RZB-2101 are lightweight, compact, bright, and incredibly clear binoculars by Vortex, ready for the most demanding tasks in the most rigorous environments. These powerful Vortex binoculars are equipped with a compact roof prism, coated in a multi-layer dielectric coating that gives you incredibly color faithful images. Each lens in these roof prism binoculars is made from premium, high density, extra-low dispersion glass and coated with Vortex's proprietary XR anti-reflective lens coating, resulting in an extraordinarily bright image in the Vortex Razor-HD 8x Roof Prism Binoculars at any range, complete with high resolution and great contrast. Phase correction on the roof prism further improves the resolution and contrast of the binoculars. For added durability, the Vortex RazorHD 8x42 Anti-Reflective Binocular also utilizes a scratch-resistant ArmorTek lens coating that guards against exterior scratches, oil, and dirt.image

The Vortex Razor HD 8x42 Center Focus Binoculars are intuitive to use and ergonomic to hold, with a compact roof prism body design and a center focus wheel that will adjust the focus of both barrels at the same time. Vortex Optics has equipped the binoculars with multi-position eyecups that twist up or down to accommodate users with or without eyeglasses. The magnesium chassis of the Vortex RazorHD 8x42 Rubber Armor Binoculars decreases the weight of the center focus binoculars without sacrificing strength, and the chassis is wrapped in non-slip rubber armoring for added durability. What's more, the Razor HD binoculars are waterproof (O-ring sealed) and fog proof (purged with argon gas). Vortex has even included several binocular accessories with the Razor HD, including a deluxe padded carrying case, tethered objective lens covers, a rain guard, and a comfortable neck strap. For high definition optics in a compact and sturdy body, choose the Vortex Razor HD 8x42 Multi-Position Eyecup Binoculars.
