This Pentax binocular series is called Papilio, the Latin word for butterfly. PENTAX Papilio 6.5x21 binoculars are the perfect choice for insect observation in the field and in museums and galleries. The enhanced observation capability of the Papilio binoculars is made possible by a PENTAX Convergent Lens Optical System Engineering (CLOSE) mechanism. The CLOSE mechanism automatically slides the left and right objective lenses toward the center when the focus is fixed at a short distance.
Don't miss a moment. Indoor or out.
Suddenly so close you can almost touch it. That's because PENTAX quality and clarity are within reach, at a price that's within reach, too. These compact porro-prism models feature a dual-axis, single body design with synchronized eyepiece adjustment. Aspherical lens elements give you edge-to-edge sharpness. Clear images and clearly affordable.
Fully multi-coated optics assure maximum light transmission resulting in high-quality viewing. Every surface of every element is fully coated minimizing internal glare and flare and giving a bright clear view.
Unique Uni-body design enhances durability by locking objective lenses in a single housing and synchronizing the eyepiece movement. This minimizes moving parts and assures these binoculars will function properly and clearly for years to come.
Aspherical lens elements, which are critical in compact binoculars, provide exceptional edge-to-edge sharpness. This assures that items on the edge of your field of view are just as sharp as those in the center.
The UP 8-16x21 Zoom and UP 10x21 and 8x21 models are offered in unique, attractive color options that match your personal style.
