The black 12x42 Blackhawk Binoculars from Barska are engineered with a powerful magnification for long-distance viewing, and moderately sized objectives to extend its usability into the predawn and twilight hours. Fully coated optics help to increase light transmission while enhancing image contrast and color rendition. This optical performance, when combined with a large viewing angle, provides an immersive observational experience for novices and advanced amateurs alike.

Complementing the versatility of the Blackhawk's optics is a nitrogen-filled housing that delivers fogproof and waterproof performance in all weather conditions. Twist-up eyecups, nonslip rubber armoring, and comfortable 17mm eye relief make the Blackhawk binoculars easy and comfortable to use. With the higher 12x magnification, visible hand shake will be more pronounced, and holding the binocular steady for long periods may cause fatigue. To help minimize shake and vibrations, they come outfitted with a 1/4"-20 tripod mount so it can be used with a variety of optional support systems.
