High-clarity lenses

Viking are known for the high quality of their lenses, and the Badger range is no exception. Crafted to the highest standard, their multicoated optics keep light loss to a minimum, ensuring a clearer image. This particular model offers a 6.44-degree field-of-view, which is equivalent to 113m at a 1km distance. 18.2mm eye relief makes the Badger comfortable to use for long periods of time, so it's a great choice if you're planning on spending the day birdwatching. The binoculars are also nitrogen-filled to prevent the lenses from fogging, making them ideal for use in all weathers.

Weatherproof design

Thanks to a rubber-armoured design, the Badger binoculars are waterproof and easy to grip in wet conditions or while wearing gloves, and the focusing ring is also easy to operate. Spectacle-wearers need not worry, as the Viking Badger's twist-down eyecups mean you can use these binoculars without having to take your glasses off. The rubber armour also protects the binoculars from damage should you drop them or while they are in transit. What’s more, all Viking binoculars come with a 5-year warranty for added peace of mind.
