DDoptics Binoculars EDX-HR 8x42
The new top binoculars from the company in Chemnitz.
Discover a new world
EDX high resolution (EDX hr) stands for a combination of brilliant colours, high resolution and sharpness and unprecedentedly bright colours - a magnificient impression!
The exterior of the EDX-hr mirrors its optical performance
Selected materials with elegant patterns were combined with harmony, giving these binoculars a unique and stylish character. The short bridge with merely one piece is not only a remarkable design element, but also provides best handling.
Particularly large Schmidt-Pechan prisms ensure a special observing experience in three dimensions.
Spacial vision and a sharp image to the edge, together with the generous field of view (132 m), give the unique feeling to the observer of being in the center of the event.
High sharpness and light transmission
The phase-correction coating PHC140, newly developed for the prisms of the EDX series, suppresses 99% of all unwanted wave-optical effects, preventing even the smallest unsharpness. A dielectrical mirror coating creates the prerequisite for a total light transmission of up to 94 percent.
Full Contrast Optics
Contrast is as iportant for the brilliance of the image as the brightness is for vivid colors. The binoculars of the EDXhr series are developed especially for showing even slightest differences in colour and brightness with a highly differentiated contrast.
Flare Reduction Optics
Flare is a diffuse light which is caused by relections in lenses and within the housing of an optical instrument. For the EDX-hr binoculars, it was reduced to such a low level that there are almost no such effects even if this is deliberataly provoked. Thus haze caused by lateral front light from the moon or lateral sunlight is virtually ruled out.
All DDoptics binoculars are equipped with a system for preventing stray light, but this is particularly advanced.
Form follows function
Perfection is not negotiable. After only a few seconds in practice, you know whether the field glases are feeling comfortable, the view is impressive and the mechanics go smooth. The edges in the rubber improve grip and provide safe holding even in wet conditions. The smooth and precise focusing wheel will not only convince professional ornithologists. The "Smart Focus" feature of the 8x42 provides a focus range from 50 m to infinity where refocusing is virtually unnecessary.
Robustness for a whole life
DDoptics binoculars undergo extreme endurance tests, from arctic cold to temperatures just below the boiling point, including tropical humidity and baths in water. This ensures that your binoculars are operational always and in any environment.
The EDXhr binoculares are made of magnesium (die-cast body) and duralumin (wear parts), therefore they are well prepared for harsh environments.
Twist-up metal with four steps
You can adjust the optimal distance from eye to eyepieces lens with eyeglasses as well as without them. The scuffproof eyecups of duralumin protect the eyepieces well and can easily be removed by unscrewing.
