About Hawke Frontier HD X 10x42 Binoculars - Green

The Hawke Frontier HD X 10x42 (product ID 47032405098803) delivers 10x magnification through a 42mm objective lens. That pairing gives you a 112m field of view at 1000m and an exit pupil of 4.2mm solid performance for birdwatching and wildlife watching in most light conditions. At 725g it is light enough to carry all day.

The optical system uses Hawke's H7 optics with BAK-4 roof prisms. Phase correction and dielectric coatings push light transmission to its highest level giving sharp, bright images with accurate colour. The lenses are fully multi-coated with water repellent outer coatings. Close focus sits at just 2.5m.

The body is built on a magnesium alloy chassis wrapped in a lightweight textured rubber coating. It is waterproof to IPX7 and nitrogen filled for complete fogproofing. Tested operationally from -15°C to +55°C and in storage from -40°C to +70°C. Focusing is smooth and precise. Eye relief is 15mm.

A lifetime manufacturer warranty backs every unit. Each pair passes strict quality control checks covering resolution, light transmission and Strehl Ratio. For birdwatching or wildlife use these are a well-built, well-specified 10x42 from a trusted brand.

Technical Details

The 10x42 configuration gives a 4.2mm exit pupil workable in low light at dawn and dusk. BAK-4 roof prisms with phase correction reduce light scatter that occurs when light passes through the prism. Dielectric coatings on the prisms reflect more light than standard silver coatings, boosting transmission. Fully multi-coated lenses reduce surface reflections across all glass elements. The result is a bright, sharp image with accurate colour. Field of view is 112m at 1000m. Close focus reaches 2.5m.

Materials & Construction

The chassis is magnesium alloy lightweight and stiff. It is wrapped in a textured rubber coating for grip and protection. The prisms are BAK-4 glass with dielectric and phase correction coatings. Lenses are fully multi-coated with a water repellent outer surface. No ED glass is used in this model.

Care & Cleaning

Use a soft lens cloth or brush to clean the lenses never use paper or abrasive materials. Store in the supplied case when not in use and keep them dry. Check the hinge tension and eyecups regularly. The lifetime warranty requires the binoculars to be used and maintained as intended by Hawke.

Frequently Asked Questions

These are 10x42 binoculars, meaning the image appears ten times closer than with the naked eye. For birdwatching and wildlife watching 10x gives excellent detail at distance though the field of view at 112m per 1000m is slightly narrower than an 8x model.
The 42mm objective lens produces a 4.2mm exit pupil which performs well in dawn and dusk conditions. Dielectric coated BAK-4 roof prisms combined with fully multi-coated lenses maximise light transmission for brighter images when light levels drop.
The eye relief on the Hawke Frontier HD X 10x42 is 15mm. Spectacle wearers typically need at least 14 - 16mm of eye relief to see the full field of view so these should work comfortably with glasses when the eyecups are folded down.
Yes, these are waterproof to IPX7 which means they can withstand temporary immersion in water up to 1 metre deep. They are also nitrogen filled which prevents internal fogging when moving between temperature extremes.
Most 10x binoculars benefit from tripod mounting during extended viewing sessions and the Hawke Frontier HD X 10x42 is adaptable with a standard tripod adapter fitting the front thread. Using a tripod eliminates hand shake which becomes noticeable at 10x magnification.
The minimum focus distance is 2.5m which is useful for watching birds or insects at close range without losing focus. Garden birdwatchers in particular will find this helpful when subjects are nearby.
Every Frontier HD X passes a strict inspection checking resolution, light transmission and Strehl Ratio for optical image formation. They are also tested operationally from -15°C to +55°C and in storage from -40°C to +70°C.
These carry a lifetime manufacturer warranty from Hawke. The product page lists a "Supplied with:" section though specific accessories are not detailed so we recommend contacting the retailer directly to confirm exactly what is included in the box.
