Vanguard 8x42 VEO XF Binoculars are a great all-around choice for wildlife watching, hunting, sightseeing, and general use. They're made with four layers of antireflective lens coating and phase-corrected BAK4 prisms, which combine to provide a clear, high-contrast view—even at dusk, dawn, or in dense woods, thanks to the generous 42mm objective lenses. The carbon composite chassis is fog and waterproof, with an easy-to-reach center focus wheel and an ergonomic design for your thumbs. Three-stage twist-up eyecups assure everyone can see the full field of view, whether or not they wear eyeglasses.
