Description
The Marquis FX ED line of binoculars belongs to the premium optics segment and competes with flagship models of the best brands not only in terms of the implemented technological features, but, above all, in terms of image quality, while remaining more competitive in price. Starting from the case material and ending with accessories, the Praktica Marquis FX ED 8x42 WP binoculars meet the highest requirements that can be put forward to premium optics.
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 binocular body is made of magnesium alloy - the most technologically advanced material used to produce binoculars today. The magnesium body allows for high precision finishing, which affects not only the appearance, but also the correct weight balance. The body is lightweight, durable and reliable in all respects. Optics in such bodies will serve for the longest possible time.
The binoculars have the maximum degree of protection against dust and moisture. Dry nitrogen, which fills the internal volume of the binoculars, protects against condensation and internal corrosion. The lenses have a hydrophobic coating, water drops that fall on the lens immediately roll off, so observations can be carried out even in heavy rain. The external rubber coating adds reliability to the magnesium body and reliably protects against accidental falls and impacts.
The optical system of the binoculars deserves special attention. The objective lenses are made of low-dispersion ED glass, which minimizes color chromatic and geometric distortions. The prisms are coated with a phase-correcting coating and a highly reflective dielectric coating, which is typical only of the best examples of optics. As expected, the prism material is BAK4, and all optical surfaces are coated with a multilayer coating in orange-violet-green tones. At the same time, the image constructed by the binoculars is free of most distortions, clear, contrasting, maximally bright across the entire field of view and is characterized by natural color rendition. Due to the small minimum focusing distance and huge field of view, you can observe almost everything that falls into the field of view of the naked eye with these binoculars.
Noting the ergonomics of the binoculars, it is worth mentioning the build quality, which ensures smooth movement without play, followed by reliable fixation of all moving parts of the binoculars, such as the hinge for changing the interaxial distance, the focusing wheel, the diopter correction ring and the rotating and retractable eyecups.
The binoculars are placed in a semi-rigid case with a zipper. The lens cap belts were developed specifically for this model. They not only securely attach the caps to the body, but also have an aesthetic appearance. Also included in the binoculars kit is a wide microfiber cloth for wiping the optics, eyepiece caps and a wide soft neck strap made of neoprene. Neoprene is a durable material with high elasticity, chemical stability and resistance to high and low temperatures.which.
