One of the world’s best 10x binoculars for bird and nature enthusiasts. This model features a more precise focusing wheel, and a total of 4 click stops on the twist-down eyecups to enable eyeglass wearers to set the eyecups at a perfect position with glasses on. Please note: Not all of us can comfortably hold a 10x binocular steady. Our bodies vibrate from breathing and heart beating; higher power binoculars magnify that movement and many of us can find it difficult to then hold the binocular still.

Fast focusing allows you to respond instantly to rapidly moving wildlife at varying distances without hesitation.

BRIGHTER
One look is all it takes.
With VICTORY SF, we have developed the most sophisticated optical system in our 125-year history of binocular development. Stunning light transmission of 92% produces bright, clear, images and gives you the edge at dusk and dawn. The innovative Ultra-FL lens system delivers unparalleled excellence in image quality. And fluoride lenses made with SCHOTT glass ensure accurate color reproduction and high detail resolution. It’s not just the finest binocular you’ve ever used. It’s the finest binocular we’ve ever made.

MORE ERGONOMIC
Explore without fatigue.
VICTORY SF binoculars are specifically designed and engineered to enhance birders’ experience in the field. One of the most significant ways this has been accomplished is in the binocular’s design. Built using a combination of lightweight materials and advanced ergonomics that moves the balance point closer to the eye, VICTORY SF dramatically improves user comfort by significantly reducing hand strain and fatigue. Weighing in at a mere 27.5 ounces, they are among the lightest in their class. It is a difference your neck and shoulders are sure to appreciate after a long day in the field.

WIDER
The ultimate overview.
With the VICTORY SF, you’ll never miss a single detail. Thanks to the extra-wide-angle field of view, if it’s out there, you’ll see it. In fact, the VICTORY SF offers the widest, easiest and most comfortable view of any binocular ever made. The 10x42 provides a field of view of 360 feet and the 8x42 offers a stunning 444 feet at 1,000 yards. Put another way, it has the extra-wide field of a 7x binocular in an 8-power glass. Combined with a Comfort View Field Flattener, which guarantees sharp, brilliant images all the way to the edge, VICTORY SF makes every great birding moment out there in the field even greater.

CLOSER
Enter into a new dimension.
With its close range of just 5 feet, VICTORY SF brings the tiniest details in nature into clear, brilliant focus – especially the world of insects. At 10x magnification, a dragonfly, butterfly or blossom looks as if it’s just 6 inches away. This up-close perspective allows you to discover and explore delicate details that are practically invisible to the naked eye. With VICTORY SF, even the most ordinary observation becomes a memorable journey into a new and fascinating world.
