Additionally, this series boasts smoother and faster focus wheels and textured grip panels, covering a strong but lightweight full-magnesium-alloy construction. The optics remain protected from dust and debris with integrated rubber lens covers, while the inclusion of a flip-top bino caddy harness system ensures hands-free carry and storage of essential items. The series comes in four optical configurations: 8x25mm (compact), 10x25mm (compact), 8x42mm, and 10x42mm.
