Hawke Frontier ED X 10x42 Binoculars - Green

The Hawke Frontier ED X 10x42 Binoculars (product 47032401527091) deliver 10x magnification through a 42mm objective lens. That pairing gives you a 5.25mm exit pupil and a 112m field of view at 1000m solid performance for birdwatching and wildlife watching at range. At 725g with a magnesium alloy chassis these feel well-built without being heavy to carry all day.

The optical system is built around BAK-4 roof prisms with high-resolution phase correction and dielectric coatings for maximum light transmission. ED glass controls chromatic aberration so colour fringing is eliminated. Lenses are fully multi-coated with water repellent outer coatings. The result is a bright sharp image with accurate colour rendition. Hawke's H7 optics system underpins the whole design.

The magnesium alloy chassis is wrapped in a textured rubber coating for grip and protection. It is nitrogen filled and waterproof to IPX7. Focusing is smooth and precise with a central focus wheel. Eye relief is 15mm which works well with or without glasses. Tested operationally from -15°C to +55°C.

Lifetime manufacturer warranty backs the whole package. Phase corrected prisms, ED glass, IPX7 waterproofing and a 725g magnesium body make this a serious performer for field use.

The 10x42 format gives a 4.2mm exit pupil bright enough for dawn and dusk use. BAK-4 roof prisms with phase correction and dielectric coatings push light transmission to its highest level in this design. ED glass cuts chromatic aberration so colour edges stay clean and sharp. Fully multi-coated lenses with water repellent outer coatings reduce flare and surface reflections. Hawke's H7 optics system ties it all together for high contrast accurate colour viewing across the 6.4° field.

The chassis is magnesium alloy strong and light at 725g. It is wrapped in a textured rubber coating for grip and impact protection. The optical path uses ED extra-low dispersion glass and BAK-4 roof prisms with dielectric coatings. Lenses are fully multi-coated with a water repellent outer layer. Nitrogen fill seals the interior against moisture.

Use a blower brush before wiping lenses with a clean microfibre cloth. Store in the supplied hard case when not in use. Keep the hinge and eyecups free of grit. The nitrogen fill protects internally but avoid dropping the body. The lifetime warranty depends on normal careful use and no physical damage.
