Fujifilm launches FUJINON HYPER-CLARITY Series binoculars

FUJIFILM Corp. introduced the FUJINON HYPER-CLARITY Series of binoculars, characterized by the “SUPER EBC FUJINON” multi-coating enhancing light transmittance to deliver a bright and clear field of view. The series will be launched in November 2020 with the release of two new models equipped with large-diameter lenses: “FUJINON HYPER-CLARITY HC8x42” (HC8x42) and “FUJINON HYPER-CLARITY HC10x42” (HC10x42).

The HC8x42 and HC10x42are compact roof-prism binoculars designed for excellent portability. The use of large lenses, with an effective diameter of 42mm, delivers superior light-gathering power. All light-transmitting surfaces of lens elements and prisms are applied with Fujifilm’s unique SUPER EBC FUJINON multi-coating, known for its use on interchangeable lenses for the X Series of digital cameras, to enhance light transmittance and provide a brighter field of view. The use of ED lens elements effectively controls chromatic aberration for excellent image resolution and contrast, allowing users to enjoy the beauty of wildlife and nature with amazing clarity.
The HC8x42 and HC10x42 use slip-resistant elastomeric material and easy-grip body shape to achieve excellent operability. Alumite-processed milled aluminum is used for the eyecups at the eyepiece, adding the metal texture for a premium design appearance. In addition, the binoculars are built with a robust and lightweight magnesium-alloy body frame and a structure resistant to water and fogging, making them suitable for outdoor use.
