The 8x30 X-Trail All-Metal Binoculars by Barska combine the classic retro style of traditional field binoculars, with modern optical technology for superior performance. These binoculars are designed with a traditional ergonomic body for a comfortable hold, and textured surfaces provide excellent grip. The open bridge allows for a better controlled, more solid grip reducing fatigue during extended use. The All-Metal construction of these X-Trail binoculars imparts strength and durability, but they are surprisingly light weight for carrying during longer outings. The 8x magnification produces an excellent view at mid-range distances with a wide field of view that is perfect for glassing large areas. The incredibly smooth serrated focus wheel is easily controlled with either hand for crisp, clear images. The 30mm objectives lenses keep these binoculars compact, yet amazingly bright thanks to the fully coated lenses allowing for increased light transmission.
