About GPO Passion ED 10x42 Binoculars in Green

The GPO Passion ED 10x42 binoculars (product ID 47032382193971) deliver 10x magnification through a 42mm objective lens. That pairing gives you a 114m field of view at 1000m and an exit pupil of 4.2mm solid performance for wildlife and birdwatching in good to moderate light. The 10x magnification pulls in serious detail at distance.

GPO fits Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass with state-of-the-art multi-coatings throughout. The result is high edge-to-edge sharpness with exceptional light transmission and natural colour rendition. Chromatic aberration is minimal even in high-contrast conditions something real-world users have confirmed in reviews.

The entire body is magnesium alloy with a rubberised exterior for grip and durability. At 725g and H55 x W127 x L138mm it is compact and well balanced. It is fully waterproof. The top-hinge design and narrow barrel bridge give a secure comfortable grip for long sessions. The focus wheel is well positioned for quick precise adjustment.

A 10-year manufacturer warranty backs this up. It comes with a carry case and strap. For the build quality, optical performance and long-term warranty this is a strong performer that punches well above its class.

Technical Details

The 10x42 configuration means 10x magnification through a 42mm objective lens giving a 4.2mm exit pupil workable in low light at dawn and dusk. ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) glass reduces chromatic aberration so colour fringing is minimal even at high contrast edges. State-of-the-art multi-coatings on all surfaces maximise light transmission for bright sharp images. The 114m field of view at 1000m is good for tracking moving subjects. The magnesium body keeps the whole package at 725g.

Materials & Construction

The chassis is full magnesium alloy lightweight and stiff. The exterior is rubberised for grip and impact resistance. Optical elements use ED extra-low dispersion glass with multi-coatings on all surfaces. The sealed construction makes the body fully waterproof.

Care & Cleaning

Use a soft brush or blower before wiping lenses with a clean microfibre cloth. Store in the included case when not in use. Keep the hinge and eyecups free of grit. Avoid dropping or knocking the body. The 10-year warranty depends on normal careful use damage from misuse is not covered.

Frequently Asked Questions

The GPO Passion ED uses 10x magnification which gives greater reach for distant birds and wildlife but requires a steadier hand than 8x. For general birdwatching in woodland or open country 10x42 is a well-proven choice.
The 42mm objective lens produces a 4.2mm exit pupil which is adequate for dawn and dusk use. ED glass and multi-coatings maximise light transmission so images stay bright and clear in poor conditions.
The eye relief is 16mm which is on the lower end for eyeglass users most spectacle wearers need at least 15-16mm to see the full field of view. It is worth folding down the eyecups fully if you wear glasses to get as close to the eyepiece as possible.
Yes they are fully waterproof. The product specification confirms waterproofing and the overview states they are fogproof making them suitable for use in rain and wet conditions.
