This Pentax SP Waterproof 10x50 binocular is built for heavy-duty use. It combines a rugged, rubber-armoured, waterproof body with advanced optical features to meet demanding conditions on land or on water.
The body is rubber armoured, waterproof and nitrogen-purged. Therefore, it resists weather, dust and rough impact. These construction choices help the binocular withstand harsh environments where durability matters most.
The binocular features new fully multi-coated optics, phase correction and protective lens coating. Additionally, it uses aspherical lens elements and a unique hydrophobic coating. Combined with the magnesium alloy construction, these optical and material choices aim to deliver reliable imaging performance in challenging conditions.
For long-range or astronomy observations, the product line also includes a powerful 20 x 60 option. This provides an alternative for users who need higher magnification for distant viewing or night-sky observation.
