About Porro Prism Binoculars:
The prism system of a binocular reduces the size needed to contain a long optical path and turns what would be an upside-down image right-side-up. In porro prism binoculars, the objective or front lens is offset from the eyepiece. Porro prism binoculars provide greater depth perception and generally offer a wider field-of-view.

8 x 42mm An exceptionally versatile, easy-handling configuration. Some outdoors enthusiasts specialize. Some specialize in doing it all. Our Legacy® WP series is custom fit for the latter with a range of models at prices that leave plenty left over to gear up for diverse weekend agendas. We kept the cost reasonable without scrimping on optical performance. All models feature fully multi-coated optics and premium BaK-4 prisms for exceptional light transmission and image clarity. Rugged rubber armoring provides a sure grip and soaks up abuse. And they’re 100% waterproof. This solid, well-rounded lineup has a single purpose – everything outside.
