For those seeking reliable, professional-grade binoculars, Levenhuk presents the New Sherman PRO series. This 12x magnification model features high-aperture optics that are crafted from premium BaK-4 glass. The combination of multi-coated Porro prisms and lenses with a high refractive index ensures excellent visibility, even in twilight conditions. A bright, sharp, and detailed view, without vignetting, is easily achieved with a minor adjustment of the focus wheel. This model is highly recommended for serious birdwatchers, hunters, and outdoor enthusiasts. Diopter adjustment is available, and the long eye relief allows for comfortable viewing even while wearing glasses. The binoculars also feature adjustable interpupillary distance and twist-up eyecups with three fixed positions via a click-stop mechanism. Despite its large objective lenses, the binoculars are surprisingly lightweight at just over 1 kilogram and easy to pack and carry on extended trips.
Built for field use, they are designed to withstand exposure to dust and water, and they are backed by an IP67 rating for complete waterproof integrity. The optics remain fog-free even in dropping temperatures due to the nitrogen filling, thereby guaranteeing clear views in any environment. The housing is constructed from ultra-strong duralumin and features rubber armoring for a secure, non-slip grip. For added stability, it can be used with a tripod. The included accessories ensure safe transport, and the objective lens caps are attached to prevent loss.
