Opticron 8×32 Traveller BGA ED Binoculars

Description

Scan expansive woodland margins and track rapid songbird flight using the Opticron 8×32 Traveller BGA ED Binoculars Japanese-engineered roof prism optical system. Featuring an 8x magnification matched with 32mm objective lenses, this compact optic produces an expansive 8.2-degree actual angle of view (65.4-degree wide apparent angle of view), an ultrawide 430.4-foot linear field of view at 1000 yards (143.5m at 1000m), a 4mm exit pupil, and an accommodating 19mm eye relief that provides full field visibility for observers wearing glasses.

The optical system features extra-low dispersion (ED) glass elements coupled with phase-corrected BaK-4 roof prisms coated with Opticron’s Oasis 64-layer dielectric mirror matrix and broadband fully multi-coated optics. Housed in a durable magnesium alloy chassis wrapped in non-slip textured natural rubber armoring, the unit measures 4.7 by 4.5 inches (11.9 x 11.4cm) and weighs only 15.91 oz (451g). Sealed with internal O-rings and filled with dry nitrogen gas for fogproof and water-resistant performance, it includes a smooth center focus wheel with a 5.9-foot (1.8m) close focus distance, a central diopter adjustment ring, push-pull twist-up eyecups, an interpupillary range from 51mm to 73mm, and standard 1/4-20 tripod threading.

Key Features of Opticron 8×32 Traveller BGA ED Binoculars

Built in Japan for ornithologists and active outdoor naturalists, this compact 8×32 binocular pairs ED objective glass with dielectric-coated BaK-4 roof prisms. Its nitrogen-sealed magnesium body withstands foul weather, while the sweeping 430.4-foot field of view enables immediate target acquisition in thick forest cover.

• 8x optical magnification with 32mm objective lenses providing a bright, stable 4mm exit pupil
• Phase-corrected BaK-4 roof prisms treated with Oasis 64-layer dielectric mirror coatings
• Extra-low dispersion (ED) optical glass elements delivering true color neutrality and high contrast
• Ultrawide 430.4-foot linear field of view at 1000 yards (143.5 m at 1000 m) with an 8.2-degree angle
• Generous 19mm eye relief featuring push-pull retractable rubber eyecups for eyeglass wearers
• Close focus minimum of 5.9 feet (1.8 m) for observing butterflies, dragonflies, and garden birds
• Magnesium alloy chassis with textured natural rubber armor and nitrogen-purged fogproofing
• Standard 1/4-20 tripod adapter socket, soft leatherette case, neoprene strap, and lens caps included

Extra-Low Dispersion Glass & Oasis 64-Layer Prism Coatings

The ED objective glass lenses focus primary color wavelengths onto an identical focal plane, preventing chromatic aberration and purple fringing along backlit tree branches and high-contrast edges. The Oasis 64-layer dielectric prism coating stack elevates light transmission through the phase-corrected roof prisms to over 99%, ensuring high image brightness, contrast preservation, and edge resolution across the entire 65.4-degree apparent field of view.

Magnesium Micro-Body & Smooth Center Focus Engineering

Weighing only 451 g, the compact magnesium body minimizes pack weight and prevents hand fatigue during extended observation sessions. The natural rubber armoring provides a tactile grip in cold or rainy weather, while the center focus wheel rotates with precise resistance, allowing immediate focal tracking from a 5.9-foot close focus out to the horizon.

• Large center focus wheel and integrated central diopter dial for rapid, precise focal adjustment
• Nitrogen gas filled magnesium alloy chassis sealed against water ingress and internal lens fogging
• Push-pull twist-up eyecups engineered to maintain fixed eye relief positions during active trekking
