High-Powered Optics for Long-Range Viewing

With a 50mm objective lens and a crisp 12x magnification, the Sahara 12×50 offers superb clarity and reach, making it ideal for viewing distant subjects in detail. The binoculars feature Fully Multi-Coated optics and high-quality BAK-4 prisms, which work together to maximise light transmission, reduce glare, and produce sharp, contrast-rich images even in lower light conditions such as dawn or dusk.

From birdwatching and wildlife spotting to mountain treks and open-air events, these binoculars are engineered for versatility and precision.

Durable, Waterproof Construction

Built to withstand tough environments, the Sahara 12×50 binoculars are fully waterproof up to a depth of 1.5 metres for three minutes. They are also nitrogen-filled, preventing internal fogging and ensuring clear viewing in damp or humid conditions.

The robust polycarbonate body is rubber-armoured for added protection against knocks, bumps, and rough handling making these binoculars a trustworthy companion for travel, hiking, or rugged outdoor use.

Smooth Focusing and Comfortable Viewing

A fast, central focusing system takes you from close focus (2.5m) to infinity in under a full turn of the focus wheel, ensuring you can quickly lock onto fast-moving subjects. Twist-up eyecups and a generous 14mm eye relief make them comfortable to use with or without glasses.
