Kowa BD 8x32 XD Prominar Details

The mid-sized 32mm lenses and the compact shape of the Schmidt-Pechan roof prisms help make this 8x32 model of the Kowa XD Prominar series an extremely versatile binocular that will excel in a wide range of areas and uses. Indeed with a weight of only 560g and just over 12 cm long, they are easy to carry when out in the field and unless the light is bad, they are able to perform almost as well as the full-sized 8x42mm version in just about every area.
With a wide field of view that is 131 meters wide at a distance of 1000 meters, you are more easily able to locate and then fix onto any fast moving objects. This is of great benefit for uses like bird watching, wildlife observation, hunting and for when watching outdoor sports, making it much easier for you to follow all the on-field action.
Their small size also makes them a great travel binocular and an ideal choice to take on most wildlife, nature or birding holidays. This compact shape, along with the large, easy to reach centrally located focus wheel and wide interpupillary distance range also put these binoculars forward as a great choice for those with smaller hands and closer set eyes.
Minimum close focus on these Kowa binoculars is only 1.5 meters, which is excellent and thus extends their uses even further making them a good option should you like to observe things like butterflies, other insects or even garden birds from very close distances.

About Kowa BD XD PROMINAR Binoculars

Perfect for huntersbirdwatchers, hikers, travelers, safari etc. Tthe nighttime binoculars with 56mm lens diameter are suitable for astronomy applications. All the models are built out of rugged and durable materials, special Prominar XD lenses and layers of C3 high-quality optical coatings. Wider field of view and stunning close focusing distance that these compact and all-round models provide, are able to satisfy the not only beginners but also the demanding users. Great balance and full protection of these BD series are also very important features.

Basic Features

The compact size model in this BD series is made out of Aluminum body and all-rounders are made out of lightweight Magnesium chassis that makes them less fatiguing. Nighttime models are made out of Polycarbonate body, the lightest material that significantly helps to take the weight off your shoulders. All BD HD Prominar binoculars are enclosed in rubber armour to make construction shock-proof and impervious to water and dust. Completely sealed body is purged with nitrogen gas that prevents the formation of condensation due to temperature changes that especially occur during the sunrise or sunset. These series offer great ergonomics due to their stylish and practical design and perfect weight distribution and balance. All models are equipped with twistable eyecups that offer ideal eye-relief even for those wearing eye glasses. Focusing is adjusted with a very grippy silver central focusing wheel diopter that is integrated onto central wheel (56 mm models) or beside the right eyecup (32 mm and 42 mm models).

Optical Properties

BD series is equipped with special PROMINAR XD lenses that enhance brightness and help with extremely razor sharp images due to extra-low dispersion rate that reduces chromatic aberration. C3 coatings that are applied on the glass help with better light transmission, colorful lifelike images and phase correction which delivers a powerful contrast and resolution for stunning view-through. These binoculars provide wider field of view for quicker tracking. All-round and compact models offer extremely generous close focus distance (1.5m) perfect for macro observations. The objects up close will reveal even the smallest details of the birds, insects, etc.
