Olympus 10x50S Binoculars

Introduction

Olympus 10x50S Binoculars

The Olympus 10×50 S Binoculars feature high magnification and wide objectives that offer an immersive viewing experience in all light conditions from pre-dawn through late dusk. Their traditional Porro prisms present you with a rich depth of field that allow you to more easily discern the distances between objects in your view for a real “3D” experience. Anti-reflection coated optics maximise the light entering the objectives to produce bright and clear images with accurate colours and crisp resolution. A knurled centre focus wheel and an elastic polymer armoured grip assist handling and give you precise control of the optic, while fold-down eyecups provide comfortable use with or without eyewear.

Optical Performance

• Powerful 10x magnification draws distant subjects in close for detailed observation and identification
• Large 50mm objective lenses boost low-light capability for use in challenging conditions such as in the pre-dawn hours and late dusk
• Traditional Porro prism optical path produces a rich depth of field with true stereoscopic vision for a more “3D” viewing experience
• 5-element/3-group lens design helps to reduce fringing and distortion, making views appear sharp and flat with little edge curvature
• Anti-reflection coated optics improve light transmission, contrast, and colour rendition
• Apparent angle of view approaches wide angle to reduce the appearance of distracting hand shake and the need to move your head side-to-side, so you see more of the scene in front of you
• 340-foot field of view at 1000 yards
