Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Minolta's Activa pocket binoculars feature a slim, lightweight, double-folding design for the utmost convenience--they fold to fit in a pocket. Plus, an attached carrying cord lets you wear them comfortably around the neck. Activa pocket binoculars are perfect for theater-goers and travelers, and are also ideal for hiking, sports, birding, or other activities in any weather.

These 8x magnification binoculars feature multicoated optics and multicoated high-refraction BaK4 prisms. The multicoating is applied to the all light-transmitting surfaces, for increased brightness. Additionally, the prism reflecting surface features a unique coating to prevent light loss. As a result, these pocket-size binoculars offer remarkably clear and crisp images with a brightness unsurpassed in their class.

Activa pocket binoculars feature a close minimum focusing distance of 9.8 feet, which enables high-power viewing of details and intricacies in displays, exhibits, wildlife, and more.

The large focusing wheel can be operated easily with either hand, and allows the user to quickly zero in on a subject or track moving objects effortlessly. Center wheel focusing is quick and smooth even when wearing gloves. The easy-to-adjust sliding eyepiece cups extend or retract as needed.
