The Levenhuk New Sherman PLUS 12x42 binoculars are designed for field observations in any weather conditions. They offer 12x magnification, which is useful for spotting game while hunting, finding a campsite while hiking, or observation from a tower for territory security. The binoculars are waterproof, ergonomic, and optimized for long-distance viewing.
The sealed body protects the internal optics and mechanisms from moisture, rain, snow, and dust ingress. The nitrogen-filled body prevents fogging, thereby guaranteeing crisp, clear views in all weather conditions.
The optical system uses Porro prisms, and all of the optical elements are made of BaK-4 glass with multi-layer coating. The multi-coated lenses and prisms maximize light throughput, resulting in enhanced image brightness and resolution, even in low-luminance environments.
Central focusing is used for sharpness adjustment. The right eyepiece also features diopter correction, enabling a personalized viewing experience tailored to each user’s exact vision. Twist-up eyecups enhance comfort during extended viewing sessions by allowing users to adjust the eye point for optimal arrangement. The eyecups offer three click-stop positions.
The rugged duralumin alloy body ensures long-lasting durability and reliable performance. Attaching the binoculars to a tripod provides a stable image, eliminating hand-shake and improving comfort for long-duration observation.
