Expert Binocular Group

 Product Overview

The Bushnell Forge 10x42 is a roof prism binocular built for low-light performance and extreme conditions . It is an ideal choice for serious activities like bird watching, hunting, nature observation, and travel . The binocular features a rugged, lightweight magnesium chassis with a rubber-armor coating for a secure grip . Its split-bridge design not only looks modern but also contributes to a firm and comfortable hold .

 Key Features

The Forge 10x42 is packed with technologies that enhance its optical performance and durability.

• EXO Barrier Protection: Bushnell's exclusive, molecularly-bonded lens coating repels water, oil, dust, and debris. This prevents scratches and ensures a clear view in all weather conditions, as it causes water to bead up and roll off the lenses .

• ED Prime Glass: By using extra-low dispersion (ED) glass, the binoculars deliver amazing color fidelity, resolution, and contrast. This premium glass effectively eliminates chromatic aberration (color fringing) for a crisp, clear image, even in low-light situations .

• Dielectric Prism Coating: This coating is applied to the BaK-4 prisms to ensure vivid, true-to-life color reproduction. It allows for up to 92% light transmission, resulting in exceptionally bright and clear images .

• PC-3 Phase Coating: This coating corrects phase shift in the roof prisms, which enhances resolution and contrast so you can see fine details .

• Ultra-wide Band Anti-Reflective Coatings: These fully multi-coated optics maximize light transmission across the entire visible spectrum, further contributing to image brightness and clarity .

• IPX7 Waterproof & Fogproof Construction: The binoculars are O-ring sealed to prevent internal moisture, allowing them to be submerged in up to three feet of water for 30 minutes. They are also nitrogen-purged, which eliminates internal fogging of the lenses in extreme temperature changes and humid conditions .
