PENTAX BINOCULARS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN POPULAR OVER THE YEARS, OFFERING VERY GOOD JAPANESE BUILD QUALITY AND FINE OPTICS AT SENSIBLE PRICES. THEY WERE USUALLY AVAILABLE AT PHOTOGRAPHIC DEALERS ALSO SELLING PENTAX CAMERAS AND LENSES.

This listing is for a smart PENTAX 8 x 40 WIDE FIELD porroprism binocular. This was a popular model from PENTAX which went through a number of versions, this being a later example with rubber fold down eyecups. Mechanically and optically it works well although there is some age related prism haze. The binocular comes with its original case, case straps and neck strap. There are no lens caps.

Defects: some marks around the body including a very small piece of missing body covering; light age-related internal haze and some tiny dust specks; the case lid is faded and has some marks.

I take great care examining, using and describing the binoculars and scopes I sell, and always get a second opinion. however, I am not a professional and my description is based on my experience and honest assessment; most examples I sell are at least 35 years old and there may be other defects.......also, please remember, everyone`s eyes are different.....

SPECIFICATION: PENTAX 8 x 40 WIDE FIELD porroprism binocular; made in japan; serial number 4965641 JB21; field of view 9.5 degrees; weight 974 grams & including accessories 1415 grams.
