10x42 Delta Forest-II binoculars

To the forest, to the mountains, to the lake... The purpose of Delta Optical Forest II binoculars is to use in natural conditions, from the Mazurian mountains to the Tatra mountains!

When you were on a trip and admired the city from the observation deck, didn't you feel the need to look at the details of the buildings? Would you like to see the bugle player on the St. Mary's Tower up close? Are you curious about what a resident of a nearby tree carries in its beak for its chicks? Or have you never yet seen the breathtaking view of the myriad stars of the Milky Way? All this and many other priceless experiences can be provided by Delta Optical Forest II 10x42 binoculars.

This is essentially a daytime binocular, although it will do its job at night as well. It has a higher magnification than the Forest II 8x42 twin model, and thus is better suited for observing focused, distant objects. Despite the 10x magnification, it still offers the user an expansive field of view equal to 6.8°, free of astigmatism, chromatic aberration and coma.

The faithful colors and bright image in these binoculars are due to the prisms made of high-quality BaK4 glass and the anti-reflection coatings with which all the optical elements of the binoculars are coated. Properly blackened interior of the tubes further prevents internal reflections, and nitrogen filling prevents evaporation of the glass in the body of the device. In addition, this is a waterproof binocular, so even for observation in the rain.

When walking or traveling with a backpack, every gram of luggage matters, so the Forest II series of binoculars was designed to optimally combine high optical properties of the device with small dimensions. Combined with a modern design, the Forest II series is sure to be appreciated by all “mobile” observers who appreciate the convenience of using and storing optical equipment.

All this, combined with a low price, reinforces the belief that this is one of the best proposals among binoculars intended primarily for nature-tourist observation. Everyone who spends his free time in nature should have such binoculars!

Undeniable confirmation of the quality of binoculars from the Forest II series is the “Owl of Rogow” award given to the Forest II 8x42 model in the competition for the best product presented at the International Forestry Fair in Rogow in 2011, as well as second place in the poll of the industry portal www.optyczne.pl for the Product of the Year 2011 in the “Binoculars” category.

In the entire Delta Optical Forest II series of binoculars, the optical system consists of 8 elements arranged in 6 groups, and the design uses high-quality roof prisms made of phase-corrected BaK4 glass, whose reflective surfaces are coated with silver, which provides an extremely sharp and bright image. In addition, in Forest II models, all the active optical surfaces of the lenses are covered with high-quality FMC-type multilayer anti-reflection coatings. Thanks to them, the binoculars feature high light transmission and neutral image colors. Well-etched interiors of the tubes prevent the appearance of unwanted reflections and “ghosting” in the image.

All Forest II series binoculars have a smooth-moving central focusing knob and individual diopter correction in the right eyepiece. Rubber, adjustable twist-up eyecups extend, allowing the eyepieces to be comfortably adjusted to the observer's individual needs. Forest II series binoculars can withstand even the harshest weather conditions. Their sealed housing allows them to be used freely in wet terrain and even in the rain. Forest II binoculars can withstand immersion in water for 5 minutes, up to a depth of 1 m, and filling the design with nitrogen gas prevents the optics from fogging up inside the housing.

Huge advantages of these models are their compactness and light weight. All Forest II binoculars with 42 mm lenses have the same dimensions of 147x127x56 mm and a weight of no more than 735 g.

 The Delta Forest II series is very popular in the country of its origin. The excellent quality roof prisms have multi layered phase coating and are made of BaK4 glass, resulting in natural colours and sharp images. Ideal for hiking or birding, or anyone who loves nature. The binoculars are water proof. The wide field of view is very comfortable to use. Compact size and elegant design.

Lens caps, a case and a strap is included.
