The Hawke Frontier ED X Gen 2 8x42 Binoculars are designed for birdwatchers, wildlife enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates exceptional optics in the great outdoors. Combining premium glass, advanced coatings and a lightweight magnesium alloy chassis, they deliver crisp, high-contrast images with true-to-life colour in a compact, durable design.
Offering 8x magnification with 42mm objective lenses, these binoculars provide an excellent balance of image brightness, detail and a wide viewing angle, making them ideally suited to birdwatching, wildlife observation, nature reserves, woodland walks and general outdoor adventures.
Exceptional Optical Performance
At the heart of the Frontier ED X Gen 2 8x42 is Hawke’s advanced H7 optical system, engineered to deliver impressive clarity across the entire image. Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass helps reduce colour fringing, while premium lanthanum ocular elements enhance contrast and colour accuracy for a more natural viewing experience.
Dielectric-coated, phase-corrected BAK-4 roof prisms work alongside fully multi-coated optics to maximise light transmission, producing bright, sharp images even in challenging light. Wide-angle optics and flat-field technology ensure excellent edge-to-edge sharpness, making it easier to observe moving wildlife, follow birds in flight, or scan expansive landscapes.
Built for Every Adventure
Whether you're exploring woodland, walking countryside trails or spending a day at a nature reserve, the Frontier ED X Gen 2 8x42 is built to perform. Featuring a lightweight magnesium alloy body which offers strength without unnecessary weight, and a nitrogen-purged construction that is both waterproof and fog-proof, ensuring dependable performance throughout the year.
Water-repellent coatings on the objective lenses help shed rain and moisture, maintaining a clear view when conditions become less than ideal.
Comfortable, Precise Viewing
With generous 22mm eye relief, the Hawke Frontier EDX Gen 2 8x42 provides a comfortable viewing experience for extended periods, including for spectacle wearers. The wide 142m field of view at 1000m makes it easy to locate and follow birds, observe wildlife and take in wider landscapes, while the close focus distance of just 1.5m allows you to enjoy impressive detail when observing nearby wildlife, insects or plants.
Designed for extended periods of use, the Hawke Frontier ED X Gen 2 8x42 Binoculars feature replaceable twist-up eyecups with positive position stops, allowing you to find the best viewing position whether or not you wear glasses.
