The latest version has been designed to be ‘Affordable without compromise’, Kowa’s philosophy when designing and making these optics.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe legendary XD lenses used in these binoculars are not just any ED glass. The glass featured is high-resolution extra-low dispersion glass containing large amounts of the mineral fluorite crystal. Fluorite crystal is the best material available to optical makers offering unchallenged light transmission, edge to edge definition and zero chromatic aberration. All these offer a sharp, high contrast image most other optics in this price range simply can not offer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BD II series now offer some series optical features besides the XD glass. The first is the amazing wide-angle performance throughout the whole range. The highlight model would be the new addition to the BD family, the 6.5x32. The field of view from these new optics is 10 degrees or 175m at 1000m. The 6.5x32 also offers a close focus distance of just 1.3m, good enough to see the laces on your shoes. Combining these features, as well as weighing just 535g, means the 6.5x model is perfect for butterflies, insects, dragonflies and even flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe regular 8x32 and 10x32 models offer a very good field of view at 8.8 and 6.7 degrees respectively along with the incredible 1.3m close focusing. The popular 8x42 setup will give you 8.2 degrees, 1.8m close focus and weighing in at 640g.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach binocular has a rugged and lightweight magnesium alloy construction. They can tolerate the severest conditions whilst providing user security and comfort in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dry nitrogen use in the binoculars will prevent the binoculars from fogging and keep the binoculars fully waterproof. The KR coating on the external side of the lenses will protect them from dirt and other types of residue that build-up over general use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo help with the comfort you have soft twist-up eyecups and a positive grip on the focus wheel. The rubber armour offers operation with or without gloves and retains the grip in all conditions. The shape and handle have been designed to make sure the ergonomics ensure these can be used all day, every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the box, you will receive a soft carry case, rainguard, objective covers and soft neoprene style neck strap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"fa-ul\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter: 32mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eMagnification: 6.5x\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eField of View: 10 Degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eField of View at 1000m: 175m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eField of View at 100yds: 525ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eTwilight Factor: 14.4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eEye Relief: 17mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eClose Focus: 4.25ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eSize (LxWxH): 4.6in x 4.9in x 2.0in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eWeight: 1lb 2.5 oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eBody Material: Magnesium Alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eLens Type: 2 x Kowa XD (ED) Lenses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci class=\"fa-li fa fa-check-circle\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eCoating: Phase Coate Prism | Fully Multi Coated | C3 Coated Prism | KR Coated Lens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jacobs Digital","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44559170601048,"sku":"BD II 32-6.5XD","price":615.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0669\/9388\/1176\/files\/image_94d47bb3-c880-42a4-8126-40d70d4701f4.jpg?v=1786478094","url":"https:\/\/buykiwi.co.nz\/products\/kowa-bd-ii-6-5x32-xd-binoculars","provider":"Buy Kiwi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
