EL 8.5 X 42

Description

LIMITLESS PERFECTION

The launch of the EL binoculars by SWAROVSKI OPTIK marked a milestone in long-range optics. These binoculars have now been further enhanced following intensive development and a great deal of dedication. The result of these efforts is the best EL Family ever. The crystal-clear optics provided by SWAROVISION technology and the unique ergonomic design, including the EL wrap-around grip, are enhanced by the new, perfectly harmonized FieldPro package. This offers an unprecedented level of comfort during hunting, thanks to the new carrying strap and objective lens and eyepiece covers. This creates an almost magical interaction between optics, ergonomics, and functionality, rolled into a masterly crafted design.

The large field of view and optics providing edge-to-edge sharpness make the EL 8.5×42 binoculars versatile to use. The 4.9-mm exit pupils also produce bright images in poor light conditions.
