Feb. 1999

travelite v

We are pleased to introduce you a new compact binocular "TRAVELITE V (Five)" Series (8×25, 9×25, 10×25, 12×25, --- Seven power is not available in new "V" Series), which will replace the current "TRAVELITE IV (Four)" Series.

Thanks to the adoption AS(Asperical) lens, "TRAVELITE V" Series binoculars minimize distortion and provide crisp image up to periphery and longer eyerelief than that of "TRAVELITE IV" Series.
Plus, rubber and curbon fiber material is newly used for the body to enhance the durability.
We believe that the power-up "TRAVELITE V" binoculars will help you create more enthusiasm in the market.

Major features

  • Aspherical lens* for minimizing the distortion
  • Edge to edge crisp image
  • Long eyerelief design for clear field of view, even for wearers of eyeglasses
  • Multi layer-coated lenses for bright images
  • Click-type diopter adjustment ring (0.5 diopter for each click) prevents un witting rotation
  • Special rubber armour for shock resistance and firm, comfortable grip
  • Carbon fiber in the body material improves durability

Aspherical(AS) lens eliminates image distortion and reduces field curvature to negligible levels, thus enabling clear, crisp images up to the periphery of the viewing field.
