Product Description

The Bushnell Forge 8x42 is designed for those who demand the highest optical and mechanical tolerances in the field. Built with ED Prime glass (Extra-low Dispersion), these binoculars virtually eliminate chromatic aberration and colour fringing, ensuring every detail is rendered with lifelike precision. The optical path is further enhanced by PC3 phase-coated prisms and dielectric coatings, which achieve over 92% light transmission for exceptional performance in deep woods or during the critical low-light periods of dawn and dusk.

Durability is guaranteed by Bushnell’s proprietary EXO Barrier technology, a molecularly bonded coating that repels water, oil, dust, and debris, keeping your view clear in the worst weather conditions. Combined with Ultra-Wideband anti-reflective coatings on every lens surface, the Forge 8x42 delivers maximum brightness and true-to-life colour across the entire visible spectrum. Compact, lightweight, and nitrogen-purged for absolute fog-proof reliability, these binoculars are the definitive tool for the serious observer.
