Add to Wish List Compare this ProductThis is a powerful roof prism design that makes an ideal for those needing more powerful binocular. The binocular focuses down to just under 2m making it ideal for naturalists and birdwatchers alike. The binocular delivers a powerful 12x magnification.
The Sahara range from Barr & Stroud features rugged construction combined with brilliant optics. They are waterproof to a depth 1.5m of water for three minutes, plenty of time to retrieve them if you have dropped them in a stream or puddle. This requires a high degree of mechanical quality in the construction of the binocular which is evident as soon as you pick the binocular up or use the super smooth focus control wheel.
The binoculars are filled with nitrogen gas which keeps water out and also stops the optics suffering from internal fogging in adverse weather conditions.
For the comfort of the user, the binoculars are supplied with twist-up rubber eyecups which make them equally practical for people to use with or without spectacles too.
The rapid focus mechanism takes the user from close focus to infinity in less than one turn of the focus control knob, which ensures that you can follow the action however fast it is happening.
The Sahara 12x42 are supplied with carrying case, rain guards, tethered lens caps, straps and lens cleaning cloth.
