Description

The HC8x42 and HC10x42 models, manufactured by Fujifilm.
Key Features

Large Lens Elements: The binoculars feature large lens elements with an effective diameter of 42mm. This design ensures superior light-gathering power, which is crucial for clear and bright images, especially in low-light conditions.

SUPER EBC FUJINON Multi-Coating: All light-transmitting surfaces of the lens elements and prisms are treated with Fujifilm's SUPER EBC FUJINON multi-coating. This coating enhances light transmittance, which is beneficial for image brightness and clarity. The same coating is known for its application on interchangeable lenses for Fujifilm's digital cameras.

Dielectric Multilayer Coating: The light-reflecting surfaces of auxiliary prisms are treated with a dielectric multilayer coating, also known as a reflection-amplifying coating. This coating increases reflectance, contributing to a brighter field of view.

ED Lens Elements: Extra-low dispersion (ED) lens elements are employed to effectively control chromatic aberration. This is important for reducing color fringing and ensuring high image quality.

Phase Correction Coating (Phase Coating): Reflective surfaces of roof prisms are treated with a phase correction coating to achieve excellent image resolution and contrast. This helps in producing clear and detailed images.

Optimal Lens Element Placement: The arrangement of nine lens elements in seven groups is designed to control distortion across the entire field of view, maintaining image integrity from the center to the edges.

Magnification Options: The HC8x42 offers 8x magnification, while the HC10x42 offers 10x magnification. Both are suitable for activities like bird-watching and star-gazing.

Compatibility with Fujifilm X Series Cameras: The HC10x42, in particular, is highlighted as being useful for users of Fujifilm’s X Series of digital cameras. It can provide magnification equivalent to a view obtained with a 400mm telephoto lens on a digital camera. This suggests that the binoculars can assist in finding subjects and determining suitable angles of view for photography.

Overall, these binoculars are designed with advanced optics and coatings to provide a high-quality viewing experience, whether for nature observation or photography.
