OM System 8 x 40 S Binoculars with Case and Strap (Black)
The OM System 8x40 S Binoculars feature a 60° wide-angle of view that offers an immersive viewing experience in the woods, at the stadium, or on your porch. Their traditional Porro prisms and anti-reflection coated optics maximize the light entering the 40mm objectives to produce bright and clear images with a rich depth of field. A knurled centre focus wheel and an elastic polymer armoured grip assist handling and give the viewer precise control of the optic, while fold-down eyecups provide comfortable use with or without eyewear.
Optical Performance
- Comfortable 8x power magnifies the view while preserving the wide exit pupil and generous field of view
- 40mm objective lenses boost low-light capability without adding excessive weight and heft
- 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
- Wide 60° apparent angle of view reduces the need to move your head side-to-side, so you see more of the scene in front of you
- 143m field of view at 1000 m
