Built for the way you use them
Ten times magnification, a 42 mm objective and a laser rangefinder in one body. Here is where that combination earns its keep.
Birdwatching and wildlife
Ten times magnification and a 6.1 degree field, wide enough to hold a bird in view and sharp enough to read the markings.
Open hill and moorland
Range to 1500 m and read the true horizontal distance on steep ground, without putting the binocular down to pick up a rangefinder.
Hiking and travel
810 g of magnesium alloy, IP65 sealed. Carried on the chest it stays out of the way until you need it.
Bright, sharp glass for birdwatching, wildlife and long days in the hills.
View categoryEighty millimetres of objective for the days you want to sit and watch one thing properly.

Press once for a distance, hold for a continuous scan. The inclinometer reads the slope up to ninety degrees either way and returns the true horizontal distance, which is the number that matters when you are looking up or down a hill. Class 1 eye safe 905 nm laser, accurate to half a metre.


How we sell
Optics is a category full of numbers that do not survive contact with a specification sheet. Ours are checked against the maker’s.
Numbers off the maker’s sheet
Every figure on this site comes from the manufacturer’s specification. Where the product does not have something, we say so. It is not ED glass, and it is IP65 rather than fully waterproof.
Advice before the sale
Tell us the ground you cover and what you want to see on it. We would rather talk you out of the wrong pair than take the order.
Thirty days to change your mind
Take them out, use them properly, and send them back within thirty days if they are not right. Two year warranty on top.
Questions we actually get
How far will it actually range?
keyboard_arrow_downUp to 1500 m, a little over 1600 yards, on a large reflective target in good conditions. Expect less in rain or fog, and less again on a dark, soft subject such as a deer in cover. Ranging accuracy is plus or minus half a metre.
What is angle compensation and do I need it?
keyboard_arrow_downThe inclinometer measures how steeply you are looking up or down, up to ninety degrees either way, and returns the true horizontal distance rather than the straight line one. On flat ground the two are the same. On a hillside they are not, and the horizontal figure is the one you want.
Is it waterproof?
keyboard_arrow_downIt is IP65: sealed against driving rain and dust. That covers a full day out in British weather. It is not rated for immersion, so do not submerge it or leave it lying in a stream.
Can I use it wearing glasses?
keyboard_arrow_downYes. Eye relief is 15.1 mm and the eyecups twist down, so you get the full field with spectacles on.
What battery does it take?
keyboard_arrow_downA single CR2 lithium cell, included. It is not rechargeable, so carry a spare on long trips. The binocular itself works normally when the cell is flat, you simply lose the ranging.
Does it have ED glass?
keyboard_arrow_downNo. It uses BAK4 roof prisms with coated optics, not extra low dispersion glass. That is part of why it is £349 rather than £900. If your priority is the last few percent of colour correction rather than a built in rangefinder, a plain ED binocular is the better buy and we would say so.
Is the laser safe?
keyboard_arrow_downYes. It is a Class 1 eye safe 905 nm laser, the same class used in consumer golf and outdoor rangefinders.
What is the difference between the black, green and sand?
keyboard_arrow_downThe armour colour, and nothing else. Same optics, same magnesium body, same rangefinder, same price. Green and sand sit quieter against cover and stubble, black is the classic.
Ready to choose?
Black, green or sand. The same optics and the same 1500 m ranging in all three.
