Get an up-close look at the wonders of the world through the stylish Swarovski Optik Habicht 7x42 Binoculars. Designed to be highly portable and lightweight while still providing a quality viewing experience through the use of excellent optics, beginners and experts alike can enjoy the view through these quality lenses while birding or appreciating other wildlife. The Swarovski Optik Habicht 7x42 Binoculars feature a 42-millimeter diameter objective lens and 66-millimeter exit pupil lens that boast 7x magnification or diopter. Together, you will experience superb clarity, comparable to that which you would experience with Nikon and Zeiss 8x42 binoculars, with bright images even in low-light conditions. The included Porro prism technology ensure this set of binoculars produce a 3D effect to provide a more realistic and dynamic viewing experience through the eyecups. The optical prism lenses feature a specialized coating to help make them easier to clean, while the entire design offers a watertight seal. This makes the Swarovski Optik Habicht 7x42 Binoculars ideal for observing wildlife or birding even during wet conditions. They can also be safely submerged in water with depths up to 13 feet (4 meters). To adjust the focus of the objective lenses, a user-friendly focusing wheel is included in the light alloy body of the Swarovski Optik Habicht 7x42 Binoculars. The exterior features a black armored design for increased durability while the alloy construction removes any excess weight that can be present in binoculars made of other metals. The wide field of view specifications offered through the Swarovski Optik Habicht 7x42 Binoculars is equivalent to 342 feet/1,000 yards (114 meters/1,000 meters). The field of view degrees for those without or with eyeglasses are 6.5 and 6.3 respectively, with an apparent 46-degree total field of view. The forgiving eye relief even helps viewers who wear glasses for vision correction see more dimensions than similar models. Users of the Swarovski Optik Habicht 7x42 Binoculars can focus on objects as close as 11 feet (3.5 meters), making it appropriate for viewing wildlife in their natural habitats. With a total light transmission of 96 percent, you can also experience a brighter viewing experience than some comparable 8x42 models from Nikon and Zeiss. The Swarovski Optik Habicht 7x42 Binoculars dimensions are approximately 5.9 inches (150 millimeters) in length, 6.9 inches (175 millimeters) in width, and 2.1 inches (54 millimeters) in height. The overall size makes them manageable for most users without any undue discomfort. The total weight is 24 ounces (680 grams) thanks to the lighter roof and alloy materials which also makes them easier to use over long periods of time when compared to heavier options offered by Nikon and Zeiss. With a functional temperature of -13 degrees Fahrenheit to 131 F, you can take your Swarovski Optik Habicht 7x42 Binoculars out in all but the harshest conditions. The storage temperature provides an additional range with -22 F to 158 F (-30 C to 70 C) being acceptable. Swarovski Optik works toward sustainable development, and business practices focused on providing customers with high-quality optics for enjoying nature in a broad range of conditions and situations and providing the information necessary to make the most of their viewing experience. Today’s optics are still based on the works of Johannes Kepler in 1611. The Swarovski brand was established as a family-owned business in 1895 by Daniel Swarovski with the advent of the first electric grinding machine for jewelry stones. Swarovski Optik was founded in 1935 and has since produced binoculars, telescopes, spotting scopes, and riflescopes.
