Overview

Bring distant animals, beasts, or boats in close to make detailed observations with the black Tasco 12x50 Essentials Porro Binoculars. Anti-reflection fully coated optics improve light transmission, color, and clarity; while a traditional BK7 Porro prism optical path and wide apparent angle of view help to provide an immersive observational experience with a rich depth of field and reduced appearance of visible hand shake common to high-power optics such as these. With a comfortable feel in the hand thanks to rubberized armoring, and a large center focusing wheel, these Essentials binoculars can be held easily or mounted on a tripod with an optional adapter for hands-free use during long observation sessions.
