Hawke Endurance ED 10x42 Binoculars - Black

The Hawke Endurance ED 10x42 (product ID 47032416764211) gives you 10x magnification through a 42mm objective lens. That pairing delivers a 110m field of view at 1000m and pulls in enough light for confident viewing from dawn to dusk. The exit pupil works out at 4.2mm solid for daytime use in variable conditions.

Hawke's System H5 optics sit at the heart of this model. ED glass cuts chromatic aberration so colour fringing is kept to a minimum. Fully multi-coated lenses push light transmission high and keep images sharp and true to colour. Phase-corrected BAK-4 roof prisms add resolution and contrast that standard prisms simply can't match.

The polycarbonate chassis is wrapped in a textured rubber coating for grip and protection. At 705g it's light enough for long sessions in the field. Nitrogen purging makes it fully fogproof and it's completely waterproof too. Twist-up eyecups with position stops suit both spectacle wearers and bare-eyed users. Eye relief is 15mm. Close focus is just 2m.

Hawke backs these with a No-Fault Lifetime Warranty. For birdwatching or wildlife watching where optical quality and weather resistance matter these deliver on both counts.

The 10x42 format gives a 4.2mm exit pupil bright enough for dawn and dusk use. ED glass reduces chromatic aberration by controlling how different wavelengths of light converge. Phase-corrected BAK-4 roof prisms correct the phase shift that occurs in roof prism designs and lifts contrast and resolution noticeably. Fully multi-coated lenses mean every air-to-glass surface has anti-reflection coatings applied to keep light transmission high. Nitrogen purging removes internal moisture and prevents fogging when temperatures change.

The chassis is polycarbonate lightweight and impact resistant. The outer body is wrapped in a textured rubber coating for grip and protection against knocks. ED glass elements sit within the optical train. BAK-4 glass prisms with phase correction coatings complete the optical system.

Use a blower or soft brush before wiping lenses with a clean microfibre cloth. Store in the supplied case when not in use. Keep the hinge adjusted and check eyecups move freely. Store dry. The Hawke No-Fault Lifetime Warranty depends on normal careful use avoid impacts and never use harsh chemicals on the lenses.
