Resolux binoculars are our new favorite astro binoculars (and equally superb for long-distance daytime viewing), combining high-resolution, flat-field optics with rugged mechanical construction and the strict JTII spec for collimation. They are fully waterproof, and nitrogen purged to prevent internal lens fogging. The BAK-4 prisms and advanced multi-coatings on all optical surfaces really drink in the light. The eyepieces focus individually, and with 18mm or more of eye relief on each model, even eyeglass wearers will see the full field of view. The Resolux’s all-metal housing is armored with thick rubber to ensure a secure, comfortable grip. Each binocular comes with tethered lens caps, heavy-duty tripod adapter, and neck strap. The 50mm models include a padded soft carrying case. Two-year limited warranty.
