Meopta 8x42 MeoPro Air HDED+ Binoculars

Extra-low dispersion (ED) fluoride glass lenses, treated with proprietary anti-reflection MeoBright multicoatings, and compact Schmidt-Pechan prisms deliver vivid true-color images that are bright and crisp across the entire field of view. The lenses are further treated with Meopta s proprietary MeoShield and MeoDrop exterior coatings that protect the lens surfaces from scratches and makes cleaning oils and other contaminants easy without leaving residue. These coatings ensure the lenses stay free from imperfections that can interfere with your glassing experience and let you immerse yourself in the view. The optical system, combined with the magnification and lens diameters, produce a long eye relief and wide exit pupil that compliment the wide viewing angle-this translates to a viewing experience that virtually eliminates eye strain and greatly reduces the need to move your head from side-to-side to see the whole scene in front of you.

Meopta designed the binoculars with ergonomics in mind to minimize user fatigue during long observations. Its large center focusing wheel is easy to use with either hand and a dioptric correction dial, located on the focusing knob, ensures precise focusing even if you normally wear corrective eyeglasses. Giving truth to the Air s name, the housing is made from a lightweight and durable magnesium alloy that is center weighted by the prism design, so they sit comfortably in the hand, and they have an open-bridge/dual-hinge design that further cuts weight without sacrificing strength or stability. Protective rubber armor wraps the body and provides a slip-resistant grip, especially in cold and wet conditions. The housing is nitrogen filled and sealed to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging in extreme conditions.

Optical Performance

• Moderate 8x power magnifies the view while preserving a wide field of view, generous exit pupil, and exceptional eye relief
• 42mm objective lenses deliver bright views even in challenging light conditions without being too bulky or heavy
• Schimdt-Pechan roof prism design allows for thinner optical tubes versus the more common Abbe-Koenig design, resulting in an easier-to-hold form factor without compromising performance
• Extra-low dispersion (ED) fluoride glass objective lenses correct chromatic aberrations and fringing to deliver bright and clear high-contrast and high-resolution views with accurate color representation
• Proprietary ion-assisted MeoBright multicoatings deliver 99.7% light transmission while suppressing glare
• MeoShield exterior coating protects lenses from scratches or abrasions
• MeoDrop lens coatings repel water and allow grease, skin oils, and surface contaminants to be removed without residue that can impair view clarity
• Wide 63° apparent angle of view provides sweeping views of the terrain without excessive side-to-side head movement
• Generous 414-foot field of view at 1000 yards

• Open-bridge/dual-hinge configuration reduces weight without sacrificing strength or stability
• Large slip-resistant center focusing knob with A±3 dioptric correction dial is easy to manipulate in cold and wet conditions, even while wearing gloves
• Diopter adjustment integrated into the focusing wheel sets the desired correction for those whose eyesight require corrective lenses
• Wide 56-74mm interpupillary adjustment range
• Twist-up rubber eyecups for easy use with or without eyewear
• Long 22.1mm eye relief reduces eyestrain during long glassing sessions
• 5.25mm exit pupil will cover pupils as they open and dilate in fading light to avoid vignetting of the view
