All about optics
The large field of view and optics providing edge-to-edge sharpness make the EL 8.5x42 binoculars versatile to use. The 4.9-mm exit pupils also produce bright images in poor light conditions.
Objective lens diameterThe objective lens diameter specifies how much light can enter the optics. This makes it a key factor in an instrument’s performance, for example, in twilight. The bigger the objective lens diameter, the more light the objective lens can capture. The darker the surroundings, the larger the objective lens diameter needs to be. Check the precise product name as the number after the ‘x’ specifies the objective lens diameter in millimeters. For example, a device with the suffix 10x42 has an objective lens with a diameter of 42 mm.

EL 8.5x42Coming with a personal recommendation, along with everything I've read, there were high expectations for these binoculars. As avid birders, my wife and I decided to pull the trigger for TWO pairs. To say they have exceeded expectations is an understatement. They just feel great in your hands, the clarity is unmatched compared to all the other binoculars we've used, and also, the ingenious strap was a pleasant surprise. Kudos to your team for the quality of your product. Much appreciated!
i haven't had the chance to use them yet but so the quality seems to be superb !!
I love my new ELs! I am an avid birder, and it was time for me to get a new pair of binocs. After extensive research, I purchased the EL 8.5x42 binoculars. I love them. They are a little stiff out of the box, but are already starting to move easier. The optics are beautiful, and the light weight makes it easy to carry around on longer birding adventures. I highly recommend these to anyone looking for a new pair of binoculars. You won't be disappointed.
Excellent binoculars,
