With a powerful magnification that is ideal for resolving detail in challenging light or at long distances where accurate identification is critical, Swarovski's green 12x50 EL50 Binocular features multiple optical technologies to improve image quality and ensure accurate colors in all weather and lighting conditions—especially in low light at dusk or in heavily canopied woods, when many birds and game are most active. Its ultra-wide 63° viewing angle and powerful 12x magnification make this optic ideal for medium- to long-range viewing and offer a completely immersive observational experience. The ELs employ a suite of SWAROVISION coatings and technologies including SWAROBRIGHT, SWAROTOP, SWARODUR, SWAROCLEAN, phase-correcting P-coatings, field-flattener lenses, and fluoride glass. These technologies work seamlessly to produce bright and clear high-contrast and high-resolution images with true color fidelity and virtually no distortion across the entire field of view.
Complementing the optical performance is a lightweight and durable magnesium-alloy chassis that can withstand extreme conditions. Its nitrogen-filled optical tubes are water and fogproof to ensure performance in all weather and environments without internal fogging when moving quickly between wide temperature ranges. An ergonomic, wraparound green rubber armor ensures that the binoculars will remain comfortable in the hand during long glassing sessions and helps to maintain a sure grip when it's cold and wet. This version of the EL comes with Swarovski's FieldPro package that features their proprietary rotating pin attachment and adjustment system for the strap that improves mobility and comfort over conventional systems. Included with the binocular are the FieldPro bag, carrying strap, tethered objective lens covers, and a soft rubber tethered ocular rainguard.
