Celestron Upclose G2 8×40 Binocular

Description

Experience the thrill of the action with UpClose G2 binoculars. Perfect for sporting events, vacations, hikes, and outdoor adventures, these binoculars let you observe birds and wildlife with ease. The UpClose G2 8×40 will quickly become your go-to choice for outdoor viewing. At the heart of the UpClose G2 are two Porro prisms, designed in a right-angle triangle shape with two equal-length sides. This design keeps the binoculars compact while maintaining the necessary focal length and proper light dispersion, giving them the traditional “broad-shoulder” look. Made from high-quality BK-7 optical glass, these prisms offer excellent reflectivity, allowing more light to reach your eyes for brighter images.
