7mm exit pupil Perfect for astronomy and low-light nature watching

These top quality Praktica rubber-armoured Porro-prism night-glasses are just great for astronomy. The superbly efficient 56mm lenses are ideal for night-time viewing and offer outstanding light-gathering power with 7mm exit pupil size (an ideal specification for night and low-light viewing).

Top quality BaK4 optics

The fully multi-coated BaK-4 lenses and prisms deliver luminous, high contrast and high definition images with excellent colour rendering.

Moisture resistant body - fully rubber clad

The non-slip and ergonomic rubber armouring ensures a secure and strain free grip even in damp dewy conditions. A nice touch for astronomy work is the enlarged centre wheel for focusing: this allows gloved hands on cold nights to find and adjust the focus wheel with ease. The Praktica 8x56 has a tripod fitting bush allowing standard camera tripods to be used as a support, greatly enhancing the binocular's usefulness for astronomy. An additional bracket is required for tripod attachment.

SNS comment: This great binocular has only been out a few months and it has already established itself as our most popular astronomy binocular under £75. At under £50 including a super guide to astronomy (worth £7.99) free - the Praktica 8x56 is easily the best value low-light binoculars we have ever seen. Highly recommended.
