Pentax designed the 8x42 S-Series SD WP Binoculars for a lifetime of rugged outdoor use in all weather and lighting conditions. The 42mm objectives are fully multicoated to reduce reflection and maximize light transmission through the entire optical path. Its roof prisms are phase-corrected to correct for chromatic aberrations, ensuring bright and clear high-contrast images with true color rendition in even low light. Its general purpose 8x magnification brings subjects close while maintaining a wide 60° angle of view to preserve situational awareness.

Complementing the optical performance are construction details made for the trail. The optical tubes are nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed for fogproof performance and to make them submersible to as deep as 3.3'. The binoculars sport a generous 21mm eye relief, and twist-up eyecups ensure comfortable viewing with or without eye wear. Protective coatings on the exterior lens surfaces repel water, dirt, and oil to keep them clean for unobstructed viewing.

    great binoculars for this price range

    I bought these (Pentax 8x42 S series SD WP) binoculars for birding and astronomy. I already use Zeiss and Nikon binoculars, so comparing these new bins was easy. They are comfortable to hold, only the focusing knob is a bit stiff, and so it takes a little time to focus. Sometimes I miss a quick bird. The view through the binoculars is excellent. They are sharp, contrast is good, the colors are true. There is minimal flare, and slight pincushion distortion. Both are minimal and difficult to notice in normal use. The stars appear pinpoint. There is no color fringing. I use spectacles, the eye relief is very generous. The field of view is wide, much better than most binoculars of this range. Since I have had these bins for just a month, I cant comment on their durability in rough use, but they do appear robust. The purchase process and delivery were good. I would recommend Pentax 8x42 S series binoculars as a very good general purpose binocular. I use them for star gazing and nature observation, and I am very satisfied. They are very good value for money.
