Product description The B&H Binocular Buying Guide Read More Representing the smallest aperture in the Genesis family, the Kowa 8x22 Genesis 22 PROMINAR XD Binocular provides the performance required for birding, hunting, or sightseeing without the bulk of mid and full-sized models. To improve image quality and offset the light gathering limitations of the small objectives are complementary technologies that include the use of PROMINAR extra low-dispersion glass, anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics, highly reflective C3 and phase-correction prism coatings that work together to produce crisp, clear, and bright high-contrast images with accurate color rendition. Added to this performance is a short close-focus distance, a wide apparent angle of view and a long eye relief, which produce an immersive observational experience for any user.Designed for extensive outdoor use, the lightweight magnesium alloy chassis is wrapped in a protective rubber armor with a textured palm-pads and bridge to provide a slip-resistant grip. To ensure a compact and highly-packable form-factor, Kowa utilizes Schmidt-Pechan prisms that allow for slimmer optical tubes but deliver the performance of conventional roof prisms. Added to this are dual hinges that enable the barrels to fold tightly under the bridge so when they are not in use, the Genesis 22 take up as little room as possible. The optical tubes are nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme temperature or humidity changes. - Optical Performance
