About the BluHorizons Pocket Binoculars

The BluHorizons binoculars were first introduced to the wider public at the Shot Show in Las Vegas in 2019. What makes these binoculars outstanding is the very innovative Autobright^TM Lens Technology that actively adapts the brightness of the picture coming through the binoculars to the surrounding light. This feature comes in very handy when surrounded by blinding snow or in bright sunlight.

What makes the BluHorizons excellent pocket binoculars is their compact format with barrels that fold right next to each other, making them suitable for any pocket. The binoculars are of the single bridge and double hinge type, with the ridged focusing knob within the bridge. The ridges on the focusing knob allow for a firm and comfortable grip. The rubber foldings on the eyecups shield the user's eyes from sunlight. The diopter is located on the left ocular. The binoculars are equipped with roof Schmidt-Pechan prisms and the barrels are filled with nitrogen to prevent fogging at lower temperatures. The binoculars are suited for temperatures between -20 and +70 ˚C. To additionally protect the binoculars, the housing is rubberized. The binoculars are rainproof.

All the features of the BluHorizons binoculars make them an excellent choice for anyone who enjoys an active outdoor lifestyle.
