Winner of both the Editors Choice and Great Buy Awards from Outdoor Life Magazine!
Its rare that a single product garners both the Great Buy and Editor's Choice honors, but this year's (2008) remarkable entry from Pentax has world-class glass at a price point most sportsmen can afford. This hand-size marvel excelled in every category, leading the way in resolution and low-light performance but also getting the highest marks in every one of the subjective considerations. The team especially liked the positive-locking, three-position eyecups, the bright, crisp image and the pleasing ergonomics of the DCF LV. Its mid-range power and objective lens size are about right for a compact, but it has the eye relief (18mm) and resolution of a full-size binocular. Its compact size and polycarbonate body make this a great choice when weight and mobility-along with value- are considerations.
TESTERS COMMENTS:
- Great range of tack-sharp focusing
- Feels great in the hand
- Exceptionally good eyecups
- A little bulky for a compact
- Image has nice contrast
- Definitive eyecup-adjustment intervals
- Brightness of image comparable to that of a full size
Available in 9x28 magnification, the Pentax DCF LV binoculars feature a durable, lightweight, compact body. With high resolution phase-coated and super-reflective coated roof prisms for high contrast images, the nitrogen-filled waterproof (JIS Class 6) construction allows these binoculars to be used in the most extreme weather conditions and submerged to 3.3 feet. The inner-focus optical design adds durability and the helicoid eyepiece rings offer comfortable eye relief. Fully multi-coated lenses increase light transmission and color quality while rubber covered exterior provides a sure grip and protects the internal mechanisms. All Pentax binoculars offer a Worry Free Warranty.
