The Levenhuk New Sherman BASE 12x50 binoculars are an indispensable tool for nature enthusiasts, hunters, and those involved in scouting, search and rescue, or security. The device’s body is made of silumin, which is a durable aluminum-silicon alloy that is not susceptible to corrosion or mechanical wear. The binoculars are IP67-rated, ensuring reliable protection against dust and moisture.
The binoculars feature a Porro prism optical system. The prisms are multi-coated, made of BaK-4 glass, and boast a high refractive index. The exit pupil is smooth and round, eliminating distortions at the edges of the field of view. The 50mm objective lenses are multi-coated, as are the prisms, making the binoculars effective even in low-light conditions as the optics gather the maximum amount of light.
With a 12x magnification, they are suitable for observing objects at significant distances. The minimum focusing distance is 8 meters, allowing you to see fine details at close range. The device features a diopter adjustment ring and twist-up eyecups. It makes it easy to customize for the individual vision of different users.
The binoculars can be mounted on a tripod thanks to its 1/4-inch socket.
