A Wider View at 8x
The 8x42 McKenzie HD is the model to look at when field of view matters more than extra magnification. At 107 m at 1000 m, it keeps more of the scene in view while you scan, and Leupold pairs that wider view with its Advanced Optical System, HD lenses and an Abbe-Koenig roof prism. Together, those optical elements are designed around light transmission, glare reduction, resolution and clarity during longer viewing sessions.
Simple Adjustment in the Field
The twist-up eyecups provide 17 mm of eye relief and can be replaced if damaged, while the large central focus dial is designed to be easy to find and turn even with gloves. The high-impact polymer housing is wrapped in easy-grip rubber armour, and the binoculars are waterproof and fogproof for changing outdoor conditions.
