Barska 8x42 ED Waterproof Binoculars Greenpresent clear and crisp high-contrast views with accurate color representation across a distortion-free wide field of view. This is accomplished through the use of extra low-dispersion (ED) glass, fully multi-coated optics, and BAK4 prisms to correct chromatic and spherical aberrations and reduce internal light diffraction while improving light transmission. Add to these performance features, a short 6' close focus distance, a wide 65° angle of view, plus wide exit pupil and long eye relief, and users are presented with an immersive observational experience.

To help improve grip strength and overall stability, Barska built these binoculars with a bridge that opens the middle of the optic to allow your fingers to wrap around the tubes, and dual hinges that support the front and rear of the tubes, keeping the barrels parallel and aligned. To withstand the rigors of the trail, the chassis is wrapped in a protective rubber armor that is textured to further ensure a secure slip-resistant grip. The optical tubes are argon-filled and O-ring sealed to provide water and fogproof performance in all weather conditions and temperatures. The combination of optics and construction details make the Level ED binoculars an ideal addition to your kit, whether you're in the woods, on the range, at the stadium, or sightseeing around town.

Q: 10. Is it best (why?) for birding than the Leica 40094 Ultravid 10 x 42 HD Plus ?

A: In the Ultravid HD PLUS line, for its size (smallest premium full-size bins available) and massive field of view, the 8x32 or for its brightness and again, massive field of view, the 7x42 would be the best choices. For the absolute best optics available, the Noctivid 8x42 would be the best choice. 10x is generally considered too much power for birding. If you have to have 10x42, the Noctivid would be the best choice as it has the best optics (best sharpness, contrast, resolution and color rendition) of any 10x42 on the market.
