The SG 12×24 DH are for concert-goers, travellers, birdwatchers and sports fans who want a closer view.

Roof prism for a compact and collapsible body

Compared to porro prism binoculars, roof prism binoculars still offer a good optical performance with the advantage of a more compact, therefore more comfortable, body. This is possible because in the roof prism system the optical path goes straight from the outside to your eyes, allowing a simpler design of the binoculars’ body.

Elastomer covering

The external part of these binoculars’ body is covered with elastomer instead of regular plastic. Compared to regular plastic, elastomer is a polymer material with viscoelasticity, that makes it more elastic and therefore more suitable to protect these binoculars’ body, as it can better absorb shocks in case of accidental impacts.

Center focus

The center focus ring in the central part of this pair of binoculars allows you to easily adjust the focus of both the right and left lenses simultaneously.

Wide view

Wide models are those binoculars whose field of view is 60 degrees or higher, thus allowing you to observe a wider portion of sky or land on the horizontal line.
