Vanguard Vesta 8x25 WP Binocular (Vesta 8250)

Full-size binoculars have better light output characteristics than compact models. When it comes to packing a backpack or suitcase for a trip, a bag for fishing, not to mention a trip to the football game, or a trip to the theater, full-size binoculars do not always have a place. While for the Vanguard Vesta 8x25 WP binoculars there is a place even in a pocket. And if you are still hesitating whether the Vanguard Vesta 8x25 WP will really meet your requirements, be sure that compact binoculars with high-quality illuminated optics will easily give a head start to full-size budget models.

If you are not one of those whose binoculars gather dust on the shelf, if binoculars are part of your hobby and a faithful companion during active pastime, the Vanguard Vesta 8x25 WP is exactly the model you can rely on in the most adverse conditions during daily use. A quick glance at these binoculars is enough to appreciate the solidity of its design. Vanguard Vesta is not overloaded with complex mechanical components or unnecessary design elements. Everything is as simple and reliable as possible.

The standards for the production of modern high-quality binoculars require the mandatory use of a number of design solutions and materials, such as a hermetic waterproof housing filled with nitrogen, the use of BAK4 optical glass prisms, and mandatory full multi-layer illumination of optics. Vanguard Vesta 8x25 WP fully meets these standards.

It is especially worth noting the incredibly small focusing limit, which is only 2.5 meters, which most binoculars in this price category cannot boast of. The ability to focus at such a short distance provides excellent opportunities for macro observations.

MultiGuard® Coatings. When light passes through each optical surface of the lens that does not have a coating, 4% of the light flux is reflected. The multilayer coating increases the light transmission to 99.5%. As a result, the four-layer illuminating coating MultiGuard® Coatings applied to each optical surface ensure a high level of light transmission of the optical system and unsurpassed natural color rendering.

BAK4 Prism. Significant light losses in a rotating prism system occur regardless of its design. The use of BAK4 optical glass (barite crown) with a higher refractive index minimizes light loss and largely avoids vignetting (darkening of the image due to cutting of the light beam at the periphery of the eyepiece lenses).

Waterproof & fogproof. These binoculars have an IPX7 water resistance rating and are also protected from internal condensation. The housing is sealed with a rubber O-ring, which allows the binoculars to be submerged for up to 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter without letting moisture in. From the internal volume of the housing, the air and water vapor contained in it are displaced by nitrogen N2, which does not form condensate on the internal surfaces of the optics during a sharp temperature drop.

Outstanding near focus. Most users use binoculars only to observe distant objects. But not everyone knows that the best examples of binoculars provide significant opportunities for macro observations. The minimum focusing distance (focus limit) of this model is only 2.5 meters, which allows you to view flowers and insects in their real habitat. Binoculars with a minimum focusing distance of up to 2.5 meters in this indicator, they are on a par with the best examples of optical instruments.
