Description
Binoculars Praktica Avro 8x42 WP . First of all, the design of this series of binoculars attracts attention. It is stylish and at the same time discreet, the binoculars look like a premium device and at the same time there is nothing superfluous here. The color of the case is also very individual, and for this it was not necessary to resort to a bright palette. Otherwise, this is a mid-level binocular, which in terms of the class of enlightenment, the quality of the glass prisms and water protection and body materials is not inferior to more expensive models of the manufacturer. This is an optical device for a demanding, but not spoiled hunter or traveler.
Like many of the world's leading optics manufacturers, Praktica is best known as a manufacturer of high-quality cameras. Founded in 1949 in Dresden, East Germany, the company has produced over 100 different camera models, and continues to receive numerous awards for innovation and product quality. Today, Praktica has expanded its product range, successfully using its many years of experience in developing photographic lenses to produce sports optics.
The stylish body of the binoculars is made of polycarbonate - a modern durable and at the same time lightweight material that can be easily molded. On the outside, the binoculars traditionally have a rubber shell with fine ribbing for a secure grip and to protect the optics from accidental impacts and falls. The central focusing wheel and diopter correction ring are made of aluminum. The design provides the ability to attach a tripod adapter to install the binoculars on a full-fledged photo tripod.
The internal cavities of the binoculars are filled with dry nitrogen, the sealing rings are hermetically sealed and do not allow not only moisture to penetrate inside, but also the appearance of the slightest condensation on the internal optical surfaces during a sharp change in temperature. Since the binoculars are protected according to class IPX7 , short-term immersion in water will not cause any damage to the device.
The optics of the binoculars meet the standard requirements for high-quality binoculars for hunting and sports, including full multi-layer coating of all optical surfaces (FMC) and prisms made of barite crown BAK4 . The anti-reflective coating in violet tones ensures color rendition as close as possible to natural colors. The binocular tubes are coated inside with a matte coating that prevents glare and unwanted reflections. As a result, we get an equally bright image across the entire field. The minimum focusing distance of 2.5 meters will allow you to observe objects that are literally "under your feet".
Traditionally, the image sharpness is adjusted with the central wheel, and there is also the possibility of diopter correction using the ring on the right eyepiece in order to adjust the device to individual vision characteristics. The central wheel and the diopter correction ring are made in the same style and allow for very precise adjustment, thanks to the large diameter and tactilely perceptible profile knurling. The interaxial distance is adjusted in a wide range. The eyecups fix the pupil removal point at a distance of 18 mm, which allows using this device both with and without glasses. Thus, the binoculars have all the necessary adjustments for ease of use.
The binoculars come with a semi-rigid zippered case that reliably protects the device, eyepiece caps, lens caps conveniently secured with rubber bands, as well as a cloth for wiping the optics and a wide neck strap made of neoprene - a durable material with high elasticity, chemical stability and resistance to high and low temperatures.
