The Pentax AD 7x32 ED builds on the Pentax A-series legacy of offering outstanding viewing performance and superb operability in a compact, lightweight body. These binoculars are highly portable, making them suitable for a wide range of outdoor and indoor applications including bird watching, nature observation, sporting events, and concerts. These roof-prism binoculars are the first in the A-series to incorporate ED (Extra-low Dispersion) optical elements to deliver a sharp, high-contrast, blur-free view, rivaling that of higher-end models. As with Pentaxs top-end Z-series models, this new model provides a bright, clear view of the subject with minimal glare and ghost images, thanks to the application of a full multi-coating process to all lens surfaces, and a special coating designed to optimize light transmittance.
