Buy KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II ED Binoculars – premium optics with ED lenses in objective and eyepiece for uncompromising colour fidelity

The KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II is a premium 8x32 roof-prism binocular from KENKO’s new ED II generation. ED (Extra Low Dispersion) glass is used not only in the objective but also in the eyepiece – minimising chromatic aberration at high-contrast edges and delivering a visibly sharper, colour-pure image. With a 8.3° real field of view, 145.1 m panorama at 1,000 m and a close focus of 2 m, the binocular is universally useful – from butterflies in the garden to long-range target identification. A fibreglass-reinforced body, IPX7 waterproofing and nitrogen filling make it field-ready in any weather. Buy now at Swiss-Sale.ch – your Swiss specialist shop for premium optics.

ED lenses in objective AND eyepiece – why the Avantar ED II renders a visibly sharper image

Most ED binoculars in this price class use ED glass only in the objective. The KENKO Avantar ED II uses ED lenses in the eyepiece as well. Chromatic aberration is reduced in both light paths – the result is an image with noticeably less colour fringing on contrast edges (branches against bright sky, bird silhouettes, sun reflections on water). Combined with the fully multi-coated roof-prism system, you get a clear, neutral, high-resolution image.

Field-ready in any weather – IPX7, nitrogen and rubber armouring

The KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II is waterproof to IPX7 (1 m depth, 10 minutes) and nitrogen-purged. That prevents fogging on the inner lenses during temperature changes – a common issue on non-purged binoculars. The rubberised outer shell provides sure grip even with wet or gloved hands and absorbs light impacts. A fibreglass-reinforced chassis stays light and rigid at once – perfect for long observation days in the field.

Ergonomics and controls – focus, diopter adjustment and twist-up eyecups

The centre-focus wheel of the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II runs smoothly and precisely across its entire travel. The diopter adjustment on the right eyepiece compensates for differences between your eyes – once set, it stays put. Multi-position twist-up eyecups retract for eyeglass wearers (full field preserved thanks to 15.7 mm eye relief) or extend for naked-eye use. Interpupillary distance 56-73 mm fits almost all adult users.

What is the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II built for? – Birding, hiking, cultural observation

The ED concept pays off wherever fine colour detail matters: birding (plumage, eye rings, breast markings), cultural observation (facade details, distant inscriptions) and detail work while hunting. The compact 8x32 format and 410 g weight make the binocular a travel companion you can carry all day without fatigue.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions – KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II

Answers about the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II – optics and ED technology, field uses, care and Swiss shipping.

What optical benefits does the ED concept bring to the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II?
The KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II uses ED (Extra Low Dispersion) lenses in both the objective and the eyepiece. These special glasses refract different wavelengths more evenly and reduce chromatic aberration (colour fringing) at contrast edges. The result is a visibly sharper, colour-neutral image.
What are the dimensions and weight of the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II?
The KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II weighs 410 g and measures 115 x 49.5 x 24 mm. Interpupillary distance adjusts between 56-73 mm and fits nearly all adult users.
What is the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II used for?
The KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II is ideal for birding, hiking, nature travel and cultural observation. ED glass stands out in high-contrast scenes (silhouettes against the sky, plumage detail, water and light reflections). With 2 m close focus, butterflies and dragonflies are comfortably observable too.
What makes the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II special?
Three points: ED lenses not only in the objective but also in the eyepiece (rare in this price class), full IPX7 waterproofing with nitrogen filling for fog-free inner lenses, and a fibreglass-reinforced body that weighs just 410 g despite premium optics.
How does the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II differ from a similar model?
Within the KENKO range, the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II represents the premium line (ED technology). Optical performance is above average for its price bracket – comparable binoculars without these features often cost notably more.
How do you care for the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II?
Remove dust with a blower, clean lenses with a soft microfibre cloth. For heavier soiling use optics cleaning fluid. Air-dry after wet use, then store with lens caps in the pouch. Do not use solvents or household cleaners.
How does the diopter adjustment on the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II work?
The diopter adjustment on the right eyepiece compensates for differences between your eyes. Setup: close left eye, focus a subject with the central wheel. Then close right eye, adjust the diopter ring (right eyepiece) until the subject appears sharp on the right too. Once set, the value stays stable – the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II holds the setting even after transport.
Which accessories fit the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II?
A 1/4" tripod adapter turns the binocular into a stationary observation tool – the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II has an integrated tripod thread. For travel protection a solid hardshell pouch is recommended (the included pouch suits light duty). A neoprene strap can replace the included neck strap and reduces neck pressure on long observation days.
What warranty comes with the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II?
KENKO offers a standard manufacturer warranty against material and workmanship defects. In Switzerland, an additional 2-year statutory warranty applies, handled by Swiss-Sale.ch directly – no cross-border shipping. Exact terms are on the included warranty card.
How fast does Swiss-Sale.ch ship?

Swiss-Sale.ch is an official Swiss dealer for KENKO optics. Warranty is handled in Switzerland – no customs, no waiting. Shipping from our Swiss warehouse within 1–2 working days, personal expert advice on binoculars and accessories.
How do you set up the KENKO Avantar 8x32 ED II correctly (especially as an eyeglass wearer)?
As an eyeglass wearer: leave the eyecups retracted – the 15.7 mm eye relief is enough to see the full field without glasses-distance issues. Without glasses: twist the eyecups out to the first or second click stop. Adjust interpupillary distance via the hinge angle until both images merge into one round circle. Set focus and diopter as described in question 7.
