Discover the professional PETREL binoculars from KITE, a model renowned for its simplicity, light weight, and unmatched ruggedness, outperforming many competitors on the market in terms of strength and durability. These binoculars are a reliable and enjoyable companion for daily use in all conditions, thanks in particular to their excellent optical quality and improved ergonomic design inspired by the Pérel II series.
Manufactured in Japan, the PETREL binoculars feature recognized optical properties, delivering a bright image with true-to-life colors thanks to the use of phase-corrected Bak4 prisms and multi-coated lenses. With a field of view of 114 meters at 1,000 meters and a minimum focusing distance of 1.8 meters, they meet the needs of birdwatching enthusiasts as well as any nature lover.
They are ideal for eyeglass wearers thanks to their generous long eye relief of 19.5 mm and adjustable aluminum twist-up eyecups. The textured rubber body surface, along with thumb indents on the back, provides a comfortable and secure grip. Additionally, they are fully waterproof and nitrogen-filled, ensuring reliable use in all circumstances.
The PETREL binoculars are compact (dimensions: 145 x 124 x 108 mm), relatively lightweight (620 grams), and come with rain caps, a wide neck strap, a carrying case, and lens covers. They benefit from the KITE MHR Advance coating and are warranted for 30 years against defects, demonstrating KITE's commitment to quality and reliability.
