Hawke Vantage 8x32 Binoculars in Green

The Hawke Vantage 8x32 binoculars pair 8x magnification with a 32mm objective, which is the combination that keeps a full-size view without full-size weight. They run Hawke's System H2 optics with BAK-4 roof prisms and a fully coated optical system, and the whole thing weighs 14.7 ounces.

Close focus is 6.6 feet, so they work on a butterfly at arm's length as well as a hawk across a field. Field of view is 393 feet at 1,000 yards, eye relief is 16mm, and the twist-up eyecups have position stops so spectacle wearers can set them once and leave them. The right-eye diopter handles the difference between your eyes.

The chassis is polycarbonate under rubber armour, nitrogen purged so it stays waterproof and fog-proof through temperature swings that would mist up a sealed-but-not-purged pair. A rubber coated focus wheel turns with wet or gloved hands. They measure 4.8 inches tall by 3.8 to 4.6 inches wide, take a 1/4-20 UNC tripod thread, and come with stay-on lens covers, a neck strap and a padded case. Hawke backs them with a No-Fault Lifetime Warranty. Browse more in our navigation compasses.
