The 10x42 Veo HD2 Binoculars from Vanguard Optics feature extra-low dispersion (ED) glass and BAK4 prisms that work together to virtually eliminate chromatic aberration, which produces images with true color fidelity across the entire wide 65° apparent field of view and enhanced contrast. Complementing the glass and prisms are anti-reflection fully multicoated optics that improve light transmission for bright and clear images with greater low-light performance.

An open-bridge design and carbon composite housing help to balance the binoculars and reduce weight without sacrificing strength. The open bridge also provides a large surface area to hold for increased stability. Mitsubishi rubber armor and thumb indents on the bottom of the chassis help to give protection from drops and impacts and provide a non-slip grip. Designed for durability, the housing is nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed for fog and waterproof performance, and the twist-up eyecups provide a custom-fit eye relief for use with or without eyewear.

 
Optical Performance
  • High 10x power magnifies distant objects for detailed observations and identification
  • 42mm objectives boost low-light capabilities without adding excessive bulk and weight
  • Compact roof prism light path ensures the optical tubes are thin to fit more comfortably in the hand
  • BAK4 prism glass delivers a round exit pupil and a crisp and clear image with limited edge distortion
  • Extra-low dispersion (ED) glass lens elements reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations for increased contrast, improved color rendition, and sharpness without distortion across the entire field of view
  • Phase-corrected prism coatings reduce internal interference to improve contrast, clarity, and resolution
  • Anti-reflection fully multicoated optical surfaces maximize light transmission to ensure views are bright and clear in all conditions
  • Waterproof exterior lens membrane adds scratch resistance and allows oils to be cleaned off without leaving residue
  • Wide field of view helps to minimize the appearance of distracting hand-shake while presenting an immersive observational experience
  • 343-foot field of view at 1000 yards
 
Use and Handling
  • Open-bridge/dual-hinge configuration reduces weight without sacrificing strength or stability
  • Large slip-resistant center focusing wheel is easy to manipulate in cold or wet conditions or when wearing gloves
  • Locking right-eye dioptric correction enables you to achieve tack-sharp images even if your eyesight isn't perfect
  • Diopter locks to guard against accidental adjustment that can affect your focus
  • 58 to 74mm interpupillary adjustment range
  • Twist-up rubber eyecups for comfortable use with or without eyewear
  • Standard 1/4"-20 socket on front of the forward bridge hinge allows binocular to be tripod mounted using an optional adapter for hands-free use to eliminate vibrations and arm fatigue
  • Long 19mm eye relief produces a generous eye box that improves viewing comfort and reduces eye strain
  • Comfortable 4.2mm exit pupil will cover most pupils as they fully dilate in low light to keep the entire scene in view without vignetting
