The 10x42 Orros 1042 Binocular from Vanguard sports a larger magnification of 10x, thereby achieving the finest details at the greatest distances. The apparent angle of view affords a comfortable scanning angle of almost 57° with the ability to study your subject with precision. The extensive objective size of 42mm makes low-light conditions a study in functional high light transmission. Whether at dusk or dawn or with overcast skies, this optic is ready to deliver great seeing. It is fog proof and O-ring sealed for waterproof protection in rain, mist, or fog or during a hike along a white-water canyon river. The rubber armoring, besides offering shielding from bumps and bangs, is textured to supply an added safety margin so that it won't slip out of your hands into the hydrosphere even when wet. The largely centered focus knob affords easily accessible focusing even with wet gloves. BAK4 prisms and fully multi-coated lenses produce clarity, color fidelity, and highly contrasted images. This is a nice-sized binocular for a multitude of environments and applications.
