We love roof-prism binoculars because of their streamlined portability. But what really sold us on this ShoreView 10×42 binocular was its 100-percent waterproof performance and high-end features, all for a price that is lower than an ebbing spring tide at full Moon. Great for birdwatching or people-gawking at the seashore, or for all-around use inland for that matter, this ShoreView 10×42 binocular features large 42mm fully multi-coated objective lenses and high-grade BAK-4 roof prisms for vivid views. The optics are set in a shock-resistant polycarbonate housing that’s rubber armored for durability and a sure grip. It is nitrogen purged and sealed to be completely waterproof, so no worries about rain or high humidity in the forecast. This ShoreView can weather it. This 10×42 binocular has a 5.6-degree field of view and 14mm eye relief. Twist-lock eyeguards and a smooth central focusing wheel add to the ease of use. Another sweet feature: captive objective lens caps that can never get lost. Includes soft case and wide nylon neck strap. Life
