Blaser 8x30 Primus Globetrotter Binoculars

Inspired by hunters and built to travel, Blaser 8x30 Primus Globetrotter Binocularscombine a slim ergonomic form factor with thoughtfully engineered optical features to give users an optic that is ideal for fast glassing on-the-go without compromise.
The optical performance starts with extra-low-dispersion (ED) glass elements and phase-corrected BAK4 Schmidt-Pechan roof prisms that help to correct spherical and chromatic aberrations—producing bright and clear high-contrast images with accurate color representation, but without distortion, across the entire wide field of view. Complementing this are the Contrast and Color Corrective Coating (CCC) and Smart Lens Protection (SLP) coatings, which further improve light transmission, color rendition, contrast, and clarity; and help to keep the lenses clear of water and debris to improve views and making cleaning them easier. These optical components work together with the long eye relief to present an immersive observational experience.
A short bridge design pulls the center of gravity back toward the eyepieces, so the binoculars' weight is rear biased for a more solid and ergonomic feel in the hand. The lightweight magnesium housing is wrapped in a slip-resistant elegant two-tone armor; and the optical tubes are nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to be resistant to internal fogging, as well as dustproof and waterproof. For long-duration observation sessions, the Globetrotter binoculars are tripod mountable to eliminate vibrations and reduce arm fatigue.
Whether you're using them around the world or around the city, these Blaser binoculars are an ideal companion that you can pack up and carry without weighing you down.

Q: 1. Does the product comes with lens cover, strap and case?
A: The Nikon PROSTAFF P7 8x30 Binoculars BH #NI8X30P7 • MFR #16770 does come with objective lens covers, neck strap and case
Q: 2. Any suggestions to add extra safety, so my camera with my heavy 400mm, pointing straight up? It makes me very nervous with only a plate holding the weight, I fear it will all slip off and crash to the ground
A: The Arca-Swiss type mounting plate system used on this tripod has a built-in slip prevention feature built into it. If the knob that tightens the plate to the ball head becomes loose enough to allow the plate to slip, it will only slip about a half inch or so before being stopped by this feature. If the knob loosens further, then the plate can be released altogether. However, you might want to consider getting a larger tripod with a wider splay of the tripod legs for your heavy setup.
