Viking Peregrine ED 10x42 Binoculars

The Viking Peregrine ED 10x42 (product ID 47031985766707) delivers 10x magnification with a 42mm objective lens. That pairing gives you a 5.25mm exit pupil and a 107m field of view at 1000m solid performance for birdwatching and wildlife watching at range. At 610g it sits comfortably in the hand for long sessions in the field.

The objective lenses use Extra Low Dispersion glass which cuts chromatic aberration and produces sharper, truer colour than standard glass. Behind that sit BAK-4 prisms with dielectric and phase correction coatings. Combined with fully multicoated optics throughout, light transmission is high and images stay bright even in dull conditions.

The body is wrapped in smooth rubber armour that is comfortable to hold for extended periods. Nitrogen filling keeps the internals fogproof and the binoculars are fully waterproof built for the British weather. Eye relief is 15.7mm which works well for spectacle wearers. Dimensions are L149 x W127 x H48mm.

The Peregrine ED comes with a carry case, neck strap and rainguard. A 10-year manufacturer guarantee backs the build quality. Rated 4.8/5 from over 2,000 Google reviews. A strong performer for birdwatching and wildlife use.

The 10x42 format means 10x magnification through a 42mm objective, giving a 4.2mm exit pupil bright enough for dawn and dusk use. ED glass in the objectives cuts chromatic aberration so colour fringing is minimal at high contrast edges. BAK-4 roof prisms with dielectric and phase correction coatings maintain contrast and sharpness through the prism path. Fully multicoated optics on all surfaces maximise light throughput. Nitrogen filling seals the optical path against moisture and dust internally.

The body is rubber armoured for grip and protection in the field. The optical elements use Extra Low Dispersion glass in the objectives and BAK-4 glass prisms with dielectric phase correction coatings. The chassis is sealed and nitrogen purged to keep the internals clean and fog-free.

Blow dust off lenses before wiping with a soft lens cloth. Store in the supplied case when not in use. Keep the strap attached to avoid drops. Store in a dry place. Check the hinge tension periodically. The 10-year guarantee requires normal careful use avoid impacts and never use abrasive materials on the lenses.
