Type: Luger DF 8×56 Waterproof Binocular belongs to the roof prism type. With the benefits of being roof prism this model becomes more appealing. They are slimmer and since they have elongated light path the vision is brighter and more natural.
Magnification and Objective lens diameter: The magnification ability of this binocular is 8x that means it can get the viewing object 8 times closer than the normal vision. With the objective lens diameter of 56mm, that is large enough to gather more light than the normal models. This Binocular is definitely better than the models that have an objective lens diameter lower than 56mm. Hence, it is capable of producing clearer images even in dim atmosphere.
Exit pupil: The exit pupil is the bright circular area found inside the eyepiece and normally the larger the diameter the better is the quality of image. Knowing the exit pupil of this Binocular to be 7mm, that is too good to be criticised. Anybody who would like to compare with other model can feel the difference in just one try. It gives pride to the owners among the many envious eyes.

Lens coating: This feature qualifies the binocular for various applications. Coating reduces the reflection and allows more light to pass through. This model consists of ‘Phase Differential correction Coating’ for its lens and these fully coated lenses all in air to glass surfaces that produces even along with bright images.
