Outfitted with a magnification and objective lens size favored by birders, hunters, and outdoor enthusiasts for long-range observations, the Carson Optical 10x42 JR Close-Up Binoculars, in Mossy Oak Break-Up Country camouflage, will quickly become an essential piece of your kit.

Their 10x power brings subjects in close while the objectives boost light-gathering ability for use from the predawn hours, through the day, and deep into dusk. Complementing these features are compact BAK4 roof prisms and anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics, which maximize light transmission and produce high-contrast images with accurate color rendition and improved clarity. Helping to offset the distracting visible hand shake that is often associated with holding high-power optics such as these, Carson engineered the JR Close-Up binoculars with an apparent angle of view that approaches wide angle.

To withstand the rigors of the trail, Carson nitrogen filled and O-ring sealed the optical tubes to be waterproof and resistant to internal fogging in extreme temperature and weather conditions. The chassis is wrapped in a protective rubber armor that is textured to provide a slip-resistant grip in cold and wet weather. For long-duration glassing sessions at the range, in a blind, or on a patio, the JR Close-Up binoculars can be tripod mounted with an optional adapter to provide easy hands-free use with greatly reduced vibrations and no arm fatigue. Ideal for hiking and boating, Carson includes tethered objective lens covers and an ocular rainguard to protect exposed lens surfaces and to keep them close at hand without the risk of losing them.
