We proudly present the Discovery optics series that is produced by Levenhuk and endorsed by Discovery.
These binoculars offer the classic combination of the 8x magnification and 40mm lenses. Considered a “gold standard” among many binoculars due to the features that make it multifunctional. On the one hand, it zooms in perfectly. On the other hand, it offers a wide field of view. The Levenhuk Discovery Gator 8x40 binoculars are an excellent choice for hunting, hiking, bird and animal watching, territory protection, and other outdoor activities.
The design is based on Porro prisms. The optics are made of glass and fully covered. The binoculars provide a bright, vivid, and high contrast image with a good definition of fine details. The central focusing and the diopter adjustment, located on the right eyepiece, help regulate sharpness. The interpupil distance is adjustable as well. The simple rubber eyecups ensure maximum comfort during extended observation periods.
The non-slip rubber protects the optics and mechanics against moisture, dust, and dirt. It also secures the grip, especially when held with one hand. Mountable on a tripod
