The Olympus 10x42 EXPS I binocular brings distant subjects closer with 10x magnification and 42mm objective lenses. It’s a full-size model for birdwatchers, nature observers and anyone who wants a binocular for open-air viewing, rather than a compact pocket option.\n\nThe 10x view is useful for identifying birds on water, watching wildlife across a field or studying details along a distant landscape. The 42mm front lenses suit the binocular’s stated use in dimmer conditions, including early twilight and stargazing. That makes it a relevant option for quiet hours when there’s less daylight to work with, as well as for daytime observation. An additional UV coating is specified for viewing in strong sunshine.\n\nIts traditional Porro-prism format and shaped, rubber-coated body give the EXPS I a straightforward feel as a full-size binocular. The supplied bag is included for carrying and storing it between outings. With its 10x42 configuration, this Olympus is aimed at users who value distant reach and a broad front lens for nature watching, landscapes and occasional looks at the night sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 data-section=\"features\"\u003eOptical and handling highlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-index BaK-4 Porro prisms:\u003c\/strong\u003e The prism system is a central part of the binocular’s optical design.

It’s a full-size binocular, not a lightweight pocket pair, but that weight goes with the 10x42 format. At a hide, I’d scan the water or reed edge, then use the large central knob to bring an individual bird into focus as it moves nearer or farther away. The same setup makes sense for looking across a field or picking out bright points while stargazing. I’d choose this Olympus for someone who values reach and twilight viewing more than keeping their kit as light as possible. The shaped rubber body is another welcome detail for regular outdoor use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOlympus 10x42 EXPS I binocular\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Olympus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: 10x42 EXPS I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Binoculars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagnification: 10x\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eObjective lens diameter: 42mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrism type: Porro prism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrism glass: High-index BaK-4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptical features: Multi-coating, aspherical glass lenses, UV coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 187 × 130 × 57mm (W × H × D)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 785g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Olympus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57667296592212,"sku":"7601341","price":180.85,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0780\/2493\/3716\/files\/7601341_01.jpg?v=1792236087","url":"https:\/\/www.htf-store.com\/fr\/products\/olympus-10x42-exps-i-w-bag-binocular","provider":"Hard to Find Camera Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
