Kowa BD 10x42 XD Prominar

A little more specialised than the 8x42 Kowa Prominar XD, these more powerful 10x42 binoculars are more suited to use in wide open spaces like rolling hills, large fields or along a waterfront where the light is generally good and where the distances to your subjects is generally greater.
Hunters, general nature and wildlife observers and even some birders will appreciate the extra image detail that you gain with the 10x magnification, which in combination with the premium grade optics ensure that you are presented with an image of stunning clarity and quality.
At 18 mm, these have an excellent level of eye relief, especially for a 10x42 binocular and as such makes these a great option should you need to wear glasses whilst looking through your binoculars.
The binoculars share the same excellent minimum close focus distance (1.5 meters) as the 8x42 model and as such can also be used for the occasional study of subjects like butterflies from very close range.
