Designed for the performance and portability required for outdoor enthusiasts and global travelers, GPO's black 8x32 Passion ED Binocular combines phase-corrected BAK4 Schmidt-Pechan prisms, extra low-dispersion glass, and anti-reflective multi-coated optics that work together to produce clear and bright images with true color representation across the entire wide field of view without distortion, or spherical or chromatic aberrations. When combined with its comfortable eye relief and generous exit pupil, users will be presented with a panoramic and immersive observational experience in the field, at the range, or sightseeing around the city.

Its sturdy magnesium alloy chassis helps to keep the weight down without sacrificing strength, while its micro-bridge design frees up more space on the optical tubes for improved grip strength and stability. The binocular is wrapped in a protective rubber armor with textured palm pads that provide a non-slip grip even in cold and wet weather. Each optical tube is nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to be waterproof, and resistant to internal fogging when moving through extreme temperature changes or environmental conditions.

Optical Performance

• Moderate 8x magnification helps to maintain a wide field of view
• 32mm objective lenses gather more light than compact models, helping to make images brighter and clearer
• Compact BAK4 Schmidt-Pechan prisms allow for thinner optical tubes versus the more common Abbe-Koenig prism
• Phase-correcting prism coatings reduce internal light interference to help improve contrast and overall image sharpness
• Extra low-dispersion (ED) glass corrects for spherical and chromatic aberrations, astigmatism, and off-axis comas to produce crisp and sharp images with accurate colors especially at the edges
• Proprietary GPObright fully multi-coated optics limit light loss while further improving image brightness, color rendition, and contrast
• Wide 62° apparent angle of view produces an immersive observational experience
• 410' field of view at 1000 yards

Use and Handling

• Compact yet strong magnesium micro-bridge exposes more surface area on the optical tube to improve hold and comfort without sacrificing strength
• Large knurled center focus wheel
• Sturdy machined aluminum right-eye diopter ring, ±3 dioptric correction range for precise focus adjustment to most user's individual prescription
• Twist-up click-stop eyecups for comfortable use with or without eyewear
• 56-73mm interpupillary adjustment range
• Tripod mountable with optional adapter for hands-free use, and reduced arm fatigue and vibrations
• Comfortable 16mm eye relief makes long-duration glassing sessions more comfortable
• Comfortable 4mm exit pupil will cover most pupils when they open and dilate in low light conditions for clearer views
