Overview
Designed with large objectives, Bak-4 roof prisms, and extra low-dispersion glass, the Captor 10x50 Endurance ED Binoculars are ideal for low-light situations, such as during pre-dawn and post-dusk periods. The combination of glass and coatings combined with anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics produces bright and clear high-contrast images with accurate color rendition and virtually no fringing. Whether hunting, birding, boating, or watching sporting events, the Captor will bring your subject up close for making detailed observations.
To help offset the weight of the over-sized objectives, the Captor ED is built with a lightweight Magnesium Alloy chassis that is corrosion resistant to help it hold up to a lifetime of outdoor use. The chassis is protected by a texturized armor that provides a non-slip grip, especially in cold and wet conditions. The optical tubes are nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and fog-proof - especially in extreme weather conditions. To reduce user fatigue and keep them steady, a tripod adapter mount is located in the front of the hinge for setting them up on a support system. A right-eye diopter adjustment allows the binoculars to be customized to most people's needs, and the twist-up eyecups mean they can be comfortably used with or without eyewear.
