Vixen Apex J HR8x42WP Binocular Waterproof ED
The ARTES J is a premium Japanese-made binocular that carries on the legacy of Vixen's flagship ARTES series. It features 8× magnification, a brightness factor of 28.1, long eye relief, premium optical coatings, and many other advanced features.
Building on the outstanding performance of the flagship ARTES series, the ARTES J combines exceptional optical quality with an ergonomic, user-friendly design. Every optical unit is individually assembled and precisely collimated by skilled craftsmen to ensure outstanding optical performance across the entire field of view.
ED Objective Lens
The objective lenses incorporate extra-low dispersion (ED) glass to deliver exceptionally sharp, high-contrast images with virtually no chromatic aberration.
High Reflectivity Coatings
Advanced dielectric coatings are applied to the prism surfaces to ensure exceptionally high reflectivity.
Open-Bridge Design for a Secure Grip
The open-bridge design provides a comfortable, secure grip by allowing your fingers to wrap naturally around the binoculars. Designed to fit a wide range of hand sizes, it offers excellent handling and helps reduce handshakes during extended observation.
Waterproof Construction
The nitrogen-filled waterproof construction ensures reliable performance in all weather conditions.
Clutch-Style Soft Carrying Case Included
A soft carrying case is included to protect the ARTES J binoculars during storage and transport. Its stylish clutch-inspired design complements your everyday look, allowing you to carry the binoculars comfortably and discreetly.
Oil-Repellent Coatings
Oil-repellent coatings on the outer lens surfaces help prevent fingerprints, dust, and other contaminants from adhering to the lenses. They also make the lenses easy to clean, ensuring a consistently clear view.
Broadband Flat Multi-Coatings
Phase-Coated Prisms
Advanced multi-coatings on all lens surfaces provide uniform, high light transmission across the visible spectrum. Designed to deliver exceptionally low reflectance across virtually the entire visible spectrum, Flat Multi-Coating achieves significantly higher light transmission than conventional three-layer multi-coatings commonly regarded as high-performance. The result is an exceptionally bright field of view with outstanding contrast and excellent color fidelity.
Phase-correction coatings compensate for the phase shift that occurs when light is reflected inside roof prisms. This preserves image resolution and contrast, delivering exceptionally bright, sharp images with outstanding clarity.
