5.2 mm exit pupil – why the Genesis 8.5x44 excels at twilight
The exit pupil determines how much light reaches your eye. At 5.2 mm, the Genesis 8.5x44 closely matches the human pupil diameter at dusk – so the image stays bright and detailed when lesser instruments fade. Four XD fluorite lenses in two sets virtually eliminate chromatic aberration, while the KR coating reduces reflections and stray light. Together, they produce a binocular that delivers colour fidelity and contrast in backlit conditions and during the blue hour unmatched in the 44 mm class.
Magnesium housing at 940 g – built for hours of fatigue-free observation
A serious field binocular must hang around your neck all day without causing fatigue. The Genesis 8.5x44 weighs 940 g in a magnesium housing that is lighter than aluminium and dampens vibrations more effectively. The textured rubber armour ensures a secure grip in rain, and the 18.5 mm eye relief accommodates spectacle wearers. Fully waterproof and nitrogen-purged, it withstands fog, snow and temperature swings – from a Swiss alpine hide to a lakeside observation tower.
122 m field of view – broad overview for rapid species identification
With a 7.0° field of view (122.3 m at 1,000 m), the Genesis 8.5x44 provides a generous scanning area for locating and tracking birds and game quickly. The 8.5x magnification offers enough detail for confident identification without image shake during hand-held observation. The 1.7 m close-focus distance also lets you observe butterflies and wildflowers at close range.
