Pentax AD 7x32 ED Binoculars

Offering impeccable viewing quality through the application of the same advanced coatings, th the Pentax AD-series is considered the compact, portable and durable smaller brother of the SD-series. Users can enjoy a mobility convenience without compromising optical performance.

Thanks to new fully multi coated lenses, phase correction, BaK4 prism, and new enhanced light transmission coating, these binoculars provide crystal sharp images and superb contrast. They have all the quality features found in the entire range PENTAX has on offer: inner focusing, water and dust proof, nitrogen-purged, fully rubberised body, focus wheel and twist-up eyecups for comfortable handling and easy focusing. Thanks to modern design, compactness and high performance features, they deliver outstanding viewing enjoyment.

Key Features

- First A-series models to feature ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements, assuring a clear, high-contrast view of the image field and effective compensate of chromatic aberration

- 32-millimeter-diameter objective lenses to assure outstanding viewing performance in a compact, lightweight body.

- Application of a full multi-coating process and a special coating process designed to optimise light transmittance, assuring a bright, clear view of the subject with minimal glare and ghost images.

- Waterproof construction equivalent to JIS Class 6 standards for dependable use in adverse weather conditions.

Fully-multi-coated optics

Fully multi-coated lenses serve the essential purpose of maximising the amount of light passing through a lens, thereby prevent flare and ghosting from interfering with your view. PENTAX applies multiple layers of coatings to every surface of every element and prism in the full Sport Optics line-up. These fully-multi-coated optics assure the maximum light transmission resulting in a clear, crisp view of the world.

Enhanced Light Transmission Coatings

PENTAX binoculars take quality optics to the next level by applying a new, optimised film-deposition technology on lens and prism surfaces resulting in increased light transmission which creates bright images with accurate colour rendition

Nitrogen-filled waterproof (JIS Class 6)

This construction allow these Binoculars to be used in the most extreme weather conditions and be submerged to 1 meter.

Nitrogen is a chemical element and a colourless, odorless and tasteless gas. It contains very little humidity and is therefore used to “purge” binoculars and spotting scopes of the high humidity air that is part of our environment. Due to the low humidity factor, nitrogen prevents condensation from forming on the internal lenses of optical instruments during phases of rapid temperature change. Furthermore, because nitrogen is purged into the optical instrument at slightly above atmospheric pressure, dust and other miniscule particles are prevented from entering the housing.

Helicoid eyepiece with long eye relief design

The long eye relief offered in all PENTAX Sport Optics allows the viewer to see the entire field of view clearly and effortlessly. This is especially beneficial to eyeglass wearers, and allows viewing for extended periods of time without added eye strain.
