Bushnell R7 10x42
The Bushnell R7 10x42 represent probably the most versatile configuration of the new Bushnell premium range.Their 10x magnification offers more details at medium and long distances while retaining 42 mm objectives, a controlled weight of 770 g and a still generous field of 115 m at 1,000 m.

Highlights
- 10x magnification: more detail at a distance without switching to a highly specialized binocular.
- Field from 115 m to 1000 m: wide enough for versatile observation.
- Field Flattener: improves the uniformity of sharpness between the center and the edges.
- ED Prime glass: improves control of colored fringes and contrast.
- Only 770g: same weight as the R7 8x42 despite the higher magnification.
- Magnesium chassis and IPX7: construction intended for intensive use in the field.
The 10x42 as a unique binocular
The 10x42 format is particularly appreciated by users wishing to have a single pair of binoculars to cover a wide variety of uses.
At 10x, a distant animal or plumage detail appears noticeably larger than at 8x.The 42 mm lens also keeps the weight and size suitable for travel.
An optic designed to exploit 10x magnification
The R7 10x42 uses ED Prime glass, Field Flattener technology, Schmidt-Pechan BaK-4 prisms with dielectric treatments and PC-3 phase correction.
The additional magnification is only really useful if the image retains sufficient contrast and definition.The optical work of the R7 aims precisely to preserve these details.
115 m field of vision
Despite the 10x magnification, the R7 retains 115 m field at 1000 m.This allows you to continue tracking a moving subject and quickly search for an animal in a landscape.
This feature strongly contributes to the versatile positioning of the model.

For what uses?
Bushnell R7 10x42 are suitable for hunting, ornithology, safari, mountains, mammal observation and the great outdoors.
They will be particularly suitable for those who want more reach than with an 8x42 without accepting the weight and specialization of a 12x50 or 15x56.
