Swarovski SLC HD Binoculars man features
High-performance HD optics
The fluoride-containing HD lenses ensure bright, contrast-rich images with maximum colour fidelity. Enhanced special coatings support this effect. The new SLC 42 HD is also ideally suited for observation at close range with a short focus distance of 2 metres (6 ft). This combination gives a reliable, high-performance binocular for observing nature in all its splendour.
High-definition – natural colours, maximum contrast
Fluoride-containing HD lenses minimise the colour fringing that is unavoidable with conventional types of glass. As a result, the new SLC 42 HD provides contrast-rich images in natural colours with razor- sharp outlines: exceptionally high quality, crystal- clear view bringing you even closer to the true beauty and fascination of nature.
Optimised coating – brilliant images, even in low-light
The enhanced coatings of the lenses and prisms (Swarodur, Swarotop, and Swarobright) support the effect of the HD lenses. Observe nature at its finest, even in twilight and low light conditions. The Swaroclean coating on the outer surface of the lens provides an anti-stick effect, making it easier to clean away dirt such as water marks, insect repellents or tree resin.
Large field of view – even for spectacle wearers
The SLC 42 HD stands out in comparison to other binoculars due to its larger exit pupil distance. This enables spectacle wearers to enjoy the entire wide-angle field of view and to benefit in full from the crystal-clear images provided by the new SLC HD. The SLC 8x42 HD, for instance, gives a 136 metre (408 ft) field of view, providing the best overview in its class. The removable twist-in eyecups are individually adjustable in three stages.
New focusing mechanism
The new SLC 42 HD not only offers excellent optical performance. The new focusing mechanism also enables particularly fast and highly precise adjustments.
Compact and robust
Thanks to its short, slender construction, the new SLC 42 HD fits even better in your hand. And the new magnesium housing makes it significantly lighter than its predecessor – ideal for fatigue-free and precise observation, even when wearing gloves.
