Bushnell Prime 8x32 Binoculars (BP832B)
With a magnification and objective lens size combination that is popular around the world for its portability and versatility, Bushnell 8x32 Prime Binoculars offer performance close to larger full-size models with a shorter and lighter design that make them ideal optics for most of your glassing needs—from hunting & birdwatching to hiking & camping, when enjoying sporting events, or just sightseeing around town.
They are outfitted with compact BAK4 roof prisms, anti-reflection multicoatings, and protective exterior lens coatings that work together to maximize light transmission to deliver bright, sharp, and clear high-contrast views with accurate color fidelity and crisp resolution. To withstand harsh conditions, the chassis is nitrogen-filled to resist internal fogging and O-ring sealed to be waterproof and submersible—so these binoculars will handle a tumble into a creek better than you.
