Zeiss CONQUEST HDX 8x42 Binocular

The Zeiss Conquest HDX 8x42 Binocular belongs to the next generation in the Conquest series. Improvements on the previous Conquest models include updated ergonomics and functionality. Functionally, Conquest HDX eyecups are now smoother and properly sized, a locking diopter has been added, and the rubber armoring is now resistant to sweat, insect repellent, sunscreen, and other chemicals. With the HDX models, the binoculars of the Conquest series can accept a tripod adapter in the front of the hinge. Conquest HDX binoculars are waterproof to 4 meters (400 mbar), nitrogen filled, and have LotuTec hydrophobic coatings on external lens surfaces. Optically Zeiss has maximized edge-to-edge resolution, light transmission, and color fidelity while minimizing chromatic aberrations, stray light, and coma. Ergonomically, the magnesium alloy chassis helps reduce weight to 25.2 ounces, and the 1.3 revolutions between 6.6' close focus and infinity is maintained. Minimum interpupillary distance is 54mm to make them easier to use for users with close-set eyes.
