It’s the first of its kind in the immensely popular 42mm configuration, that offers compactness and lightness comparable to traditional roof prism binoculars.

With its exceptional handling, this binocular transports you to new, unprecedented dimensions of observation.

full season on 1 charge

You will only need to replace these batteries once, or perhaps a few times per year. Equipped with a chamber for 2 active AA batteries and 2 spare AA batteries, you have onboard power for at least 120 hours of continuous observation. Enjoy uninterrupted viewing without any worry of battery change.

APC power saving mode

No need for buttons or worries. With our APC mode, your device seamlessly transitions into sleep mode when you’re not actively observing and springs to life when you need it, all without pressing a single button. Enjoy uninterrupted, hassle-free viewing at your fingertips.

“Small and light”

Very practical and light, very good stability and brightness, recommended for 3 people, very good after-sales service: problem following an accidental fall, replaced free of charge through “Nature et Découvertes” the store where I bought them

Jean Luc

“compact 8x25”

Very good binoculars, recommended by 3 friends who are very happy with them. Very good brightness, practical to always have with you given their compact size.
