Furthermore, the binoculars are equipped with a very good optical system housed in an excellently crafted casing. The 14x42 version is the model in the Apex Steady series with a 42-mm objective and a field of view of 70 m at 1,000 m.

The Optics
The optical system of the binoculars is made of high-quality BaK-4 glass (Barium Crown Glass). This provides brighter and sharper images than the materials typically used. The HD lenses are coated with UBX multi-coating and PXA phase coating. These coatings ensure high light transmission and provide contrast-rich, detailed, clear images. Thanks to the LPE lens coating (Lotus Pearl Effect), which causes water to bead off, rain does not affect the quality. The roof prism optimally directs light to the eye with its SHR coating (Super High Reflection).

The Apex Steady 14x42 HD employs the latest stabilization technology. The binoculars are equipped with an optical prism compensation with a 2-axis gimbal. Its LE eyepieces and twist-up eyecups make it easily suitable for eyeglass wearers. The raised eye point ensures that even with twisted eyepieces, the field of view is not compromised.

The Housing
Optics and electronics are housed in a robust casing with a protective and tactile rubber coating. It is splash-proof according to IPX 4 and filled with nitrogen to prevent internal fogging during temperature fluctuations. The stabilizer is powered by a standard AA battery (included).
