Superior Optics at an Affordable Price
Superior quality, high-performance hunting optics can find their way around your neck for a surprisingly affordable price. The smooth focusing 8x42 Diamondback binocular takes you to the fine details you prize.

Low-Light Performance
Taking its lead from the Diamondback rattlesnake, this rugged binocular is striking in how well it detects life in low light. Huge field-of-view—the largest in its class—enhanced fully multi-coated optics, phase-corrected prisms, waterproof/fogproof construction, soft tapered eycups, rugged rubber armor. It's all there. Now you can use "wow!" and "thank you" in the same sentence.

- Phase corrected prisms (increasing light transmission by 7%) deliver sharp, greatly contrasted images.
- BaK-4 prisms provide sharp images from one edge of the broad viewing field to the other.
- Fully multi-coated optics increase light transmission for higher image quality in all lighting conditions—enhanced for 2009.

A rock-solid performer
Whether your adventure takes you across rocky, sand-carved terrain, or into the high timber of the Rockies, you can trust the rock-solid performance of the Diamondback binocular. The Diamondback's protective rubber coating gives you a sure grip that is easy to handle, even as fingers grow numb in the cold. In addition, the retractable Diamondback eyecups feature a soft, tapered style for a more natural fit at your eye—cushioned with rubber for years of relaxed viewing.

- Complete waterproof protection keeps dust and water out of the optical system with tight O-ring seals.
- Complete fogproofing of internal lenses with argon-purged optics presents clear views in spite of sudden temperature changes.
- Diamond checker pattern in protective rubber armor provides a solid-grip surface.

Argon gas purging :
This advanced process protects your Diamondback binocular in the following ways:
- Argon gas does not absorb or react chemically with water.
- Argon gas eliminates internal fogging.
- Argon gas maintains its protective properties over a wider temperature range.
- Argon gas does not diffuse as quickly as other elements, extending the service life of the optics longer.
