Opticron Field Binoculars
Opticron founded their binocular business over thirty years ago, their overriding principles continue to centre on offering the highest levels of binocular quality and choice. Attention to these have helped them to achieve leadership status in the UK birdwatching binocular market.
Quality is paramount and has been developed over years of partnership and collaboration with some of Japans leading binocular manufacturers. The benefits of these relationships are seen in the quality of their binoculars and telescopes as well as the value for money which we believe is second to none.

Opticron Aurora BGA Binoculars The Aurora BGA is the latest example of putting our maxim “smaller, lighter, sharper” into practice. Building on the strengths of the original BGA concept and models like the DBA Oasis, both the 8x42 and 10x42 resemble and handle like smaller 8x32/10x32 models but with the performance advantages of a larger 42mm objective lens. Designed and manufactured to be smaller, lighter and sharper with a wider field of view and better close focus compared to any previous BGA model, the Aurora delivers the ultimate balance between size/weight and resolution/field of view currently attainable from this roof prism format. complete in soft case with rainguard, wide nylon lanyard and objective lens caps.

Opticron ED-X BGA Binoculars The new ED-X brings the Opticron ethos “smaller, lighter, sharper” into a new price category with a bold design and new performance standard for £300. Designed around a compact optical system to minimise overall length, ED-X series 8x42 and 10x42 binoculars stand just 136mm high making them closer in size to many 8/10x32’s available on the market. The new micro-bridge™ assembly, wide wheel focusing and textured rubber armour combine to offer greater flexibility for positional grip with easy access for focus adjustment even under single handed operation. Weighing in at 650g the instruments are light in the hand as well as easy on the neck when carried using a traditional lanyard. A CN standard ED objective lens system increases light transmission over standard optical glass objectives in this class, while the wide field eyepieces 7.5° (8x42), 6.2° (10x42) offer a panorama-like visual experience helping successful ‘track and trace’ for all types of wildlife observation. Other features include:
complete in soft case with rainguard, wide nylon lanyard and objective lens caps. |

Opticron SR.GA Binoculars An up-rated version of the original Opticron HR, the SR.GA offers excellent standards of optical performance and manufacturing quality in a traditional porro prism format. Simplicity of design (the binoculars are not waterproof) coupled with the highest available grade of glass components mean that all four models deliver stunning resolution – matching any roof prism binocular costing twice the price. In addition each model benefits from a ‘combination’ multi-coating meaning different ‘coating types’ are applied individually to different components within the optical system. More costly than a universally applied single multi-coating, the process has an appreciable effect, improving colour contrast in bright sunlight at midday or low light at dawn and dusk. complete in soft case with rainguard, wide nylon lanyard and objective lens caps. |
