Opticron DBA VHD PLUS 10x42 Binoculars

The Opticron DBA VHD PLUS 10x42 Binoculars are premium all-round binoculars designed for birdwatchers, wildlife enthusiasts and outdoor professionals who demand exceptional optical performance in a compact and comfortable package. Built around Opticron's philosophy of "Smaller, Lighter, Brighter, Sharper", they deliver the viewing quality of a traditional 42mm binocular while maintaining the handling and feel of a much smaller model.

At the heart of the DBA VHD+ is an advanced optical system featuring premium ED objective lenses, phase-corrected OP6 roof prisms with Oasis prism coatings and S-H type fully multi-coated optics. Together, these technologies provide outstanding brightness, razor-sharp detail, excellent contrast and true-to-life colour reproduction. The flat field optical design maintains edge-to-edge sharpness, creating an immersive and natural viewing experience.

Constructed with a lightweight aluminium alloy and polycarbonate chassis, the binoculars feature a durable textured rubber armour, waterproof nitrogen-filled construction and an ergonomic twin-hinge design for comfortable handling. Smooth central focusing, long eye relief and four-stage twist-up eyecups make the DBA VHD PLUS ideal for extended observation in a wide range of outdoor environments.
