The Lightquest HR combines top-of-the-range mechanical and optical design with exceptionally high performance!
It is waterproof to IPX7 standard (1 metre water depth for 30 minutes) and filled with nitrogen for a fog-free view. The binoculars are equipped with single eyepiece focusing and are designed for medium to long observation distances in terrestrial and astronomical applications.
The housing is made of a magnesium alloy, which makes it very light but also very robust. It is also covered with heavily textured synthetic leather.
The binoculars are equipped with high-quality BaK-4 prisms housed in shock-resistant cages and the optical system is fully broadband multi-coated.
The high-resolution optical system includes lenses and prisms with high transmission coatings and a total light transmission of approx. 90%. The lens coatings have extremely low reflectivity, ensuring that the maximum amount of light is delivered to the eyepiece. The image is impressive with vivid colours and a flat, distortion-free image field right to the edges.
The eyepiece design (8 lenses in 5 groups) includes oversized lenses for comfortable observation. Foldable eyepiece cups are useful for eyeglass wearers.
The scope of delivery includes lens caps, eyepiece protection, neoprene carrying strap, tripod adapter and a sturdy padded carrying case.
