Konus Abyss Overview
Take your boating expeditions to the next level using the waterproof Konus 7x50 Abyss Marine Binoculars. These binoculars possess all the right characteristics that you want in nautical binoculars: a Porro prism design for enhanced depth perception, center focusing with a large slip-resistant knob, a nitrogen-filled housing to keep it from fogging, and a rubber armor designed to resist impacts and give you a sure grip in wet conditions. In addition to glare-reducing lens coatings, the optical system also offers a generous exit pupil that helps to offset the disorientation of a moving horizon when looking through them on rough and rolling water.
Optical Performance
- Moderate 7x magnification helps to produce a wide exit pupil that limits the disorientation that is common with looking through binoculars on rough or rolling seas
- Wide 50mm objectives allow more light to pass through and increase image brightness
- Porro prisms improve depth perception while providing a comfortable feel in the hand
- BAK4 prism glass produces a round exit pupil with improved contrast
- Green multicoatings increase light transmission and reduce glare for use on the water or in snowy conditions
- 337-foot field of view at 1000 yards
Use and Handling
- Closed bridge configuration provides a solid and stable platform for the center focus system
- Large textured focus knob is easy to manipulate in cold and wet weather or when wearing gloves
- Fold-down rubber eyecups conform to your eye sockets and block stray light from disrupting your view
- 7.1mm exit pupil
Construction
- Porro prism design has a natural balance in the hand that reduces arm fatigue during long glassing sessions
- Protective rubber armor protects against light impacts while offering a secure grip in wet weather
- Nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed: water and fogproof
- Integrated 1/4"-20 socket accepts optional tripod adapters for hands-free use
- Weight: 33.5 ounces
