Omegon Blackstar Binoculars - Reliable all-rounder for day and twilight viewing
The Omegon Blackstar 10×42 is a versatile binocular for those who want to look just a little closer. Ideal for hiking, bird watching and use on the water. The higher magnification shows more detail, while the image remains stable and pleasant. So you can use it effortlessly during the day as well as at dusk.
Comfortable and firm in the hand
The slim shape instantly fits well in the hand. The rubber coating provides extra grip and protection. Even with prolonged use, the binoculars remain comfortable to the touch.
Quickly sharp, always in control
The central focusing wheel allows you to focus quickly and precisely. From near to far is done in a short turn. This is useful when a bird suddenly flies up or changes position.
Clear and high-contrast image
The lenses feature a multiple anti-reflection coating. Disturbing reflections disappear, while contrast is preserved. The matte inner surface prevents stray light, so the image looks calm and sharp.
Natural colors, pleasing to your eyes
You will see colors as they really are. No exaggerated hues, but a true-to-life reproduction. That makes longer viewing more enjoyable.
Adjustable eyecups
The rotatable eyecups snap securely into place. They stay in place while observing. This way, you will always view comfortably, with or without glasses.
Suitable for tripod use
Want extra stability? The connection for a tripod adapter is neatly hidden under the cover. Ideal for longer observations.
Weatherproof and ready for outdoor use
The Blackstar is waterproof and splash-proof. Rain or moisture are not a problem. So you can safely take it with you in changing conditions.
