Hawke Frontier HD X 8x42 Binoculars - Green

The Hawke Frontier HD X 8x42 (product ID 47032404181299) delivers 8x magnification through a 42mm objective lens. That pairing gives you a wide 142m field of view at 1000m and an exit pupil of 5.25mm solid performance for dawn and dusk use. At 725g it sits comfortably in hand for long sessions. The 8.1° angular field of view makes it easy to track fast-moving birds and wildlife.

The optical system uses high-quality BAK-4 roof prisms with phase correction and dielectric coatings for maximum light transmission. Lenses are fully multi-coated and carry water repellent outer coatings. Hawke's H7 optics deliver tight colour control and sharp resolution note this model does not use ED glass but still produces bright and well-defined images across the field.

The body is a magnesium alloy chassis wrapped in a lightweight textured rubber coating. It is nitrogen filled and waterproof to IPX7. Minimum focus distance is just 2.5m useful for close-range wildlife. Focusing is smooth and precise. Tested operationally from -15°C to +55°C.

This is a well-built 8x42 that passes strict quality control including Strehl Ratio testing. It carries a lifetime manufacturer warranty. Ideal for birdwatching and wildlife observation where brightness and handling matter.

The 8x42 format gives an exit pupil of 5.25mm good for low light use. BAK-4 roof prisms with phase correction reduce light scatter for sharper images. Dielectric coatings on the prisms push light transmission higher than standard silver coatings. Fully multi-coated lenses cut reflections across all surfaces. The 18mm eye relief suits glasses wearers. Nitrogen filling prevents internal fogging. The 142m field of view at 1000m is wide enough for tracking birds in flight.

The chassis is magnesium alloy strong and light. It is wrapped in a textured rubber armouring for grip and impact protection. The prisms are BAK-4 glass with dielectric coatings. Lenses are fully multi-coated with water repellent outer surfaces. No ED glass is used in this model.

Use a lens cloth or blower brush to clean lenses never dry wipe. Store in the supplied case away from moisture. Check the hinge tension and eyecup twist periodically. Avoid dropping or knocking the body. The lifetime warranty depends on normal careful use and no unauthorised repairs.
