Hawke Frontier ED X Gen 2
The Hawke Frontier ED X Gen 2 series has been developed for discerning nature and birdwatchers who want to combine high optical performance with a robust, high-quality design. The lightweight magnesium body ensures high stability and precise handling, whilst the nitrogen-filled, waterproof and fog-free design enables reliable use in a wide range of weather conditions.
Interchangeable, rotatable eyepiece cups with defined click stops allow for comfortable adjustment of the eye relief. Water-repellent coatings on the objective lenses further facilitate use in damp conditions.
Optics – H7 System
The high-performance H7 system combines extra-low-dispersion glass with high-quality lanthanum glass elements in the eyepiece, as well as phase-corrected BAK-4 roof prisms with dielectric mirror coating.
The ED optics reduce chromatic aberrations and distracting colour fringing, whilst the lanthanum glass elements ensure a precise, detailed image. The fully multi-coated optics with broadband anti-reflective coating ensure high light transmission, natural colour reproduction and high-contrast images.
The wide-angle optics also provide an exceptionally generous and immersive field of view – ideal for quickly locating and tracking animals.
Frontier ED X 10x42 Gen 2
The Hawke Frontier ED X Gen 2 10x42 combines powerful 10x magnification with light-gathering 42 mm objective lenses, making it an excellent choice for demanding birdwatching and nature observation at longer distances. The higher magnification provides detailed views of distant subjects, while the 42 mm objectives offer well-balanced light-gathering performance.
With a field of view of 122 metres at 1,000 metres, the 10x42 provides a generous overview despite its high magnification. Additional field-flattening lenses improve image quality towards the edges and maintain excellent sharpness across a particularly large area of the field of view.
A close focus distance of just 1.5 metres also allows detailed observation of nearby subjects. With 18 mm of eye relief, the binocular provides comfortable viewing. Weighing 755 grams, the Frontier ED X Gen 2 10x42 combines high detail resolution, premium optics and robust construction in a powerful binocular for demanding observers.
