Overview
The Bushnell 10x42 Engage DX Binoculars are designed to be your constant companion for birding, hunting, hiking, camping, and sporting events—especially in wide-open spaces where the high magnification and wide field of view really shine. The powerful 10x magnification enables detailed observation of distant subjects, while the 42mm objective lenses improve light-gathering ability for enhanced low-light performance at dawn and dusk or when peering into dense brush. Anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics with dielectric-coated and phase-corrected BAK4 prisms achieve up to 92% light transmission for bright, sharp, high-contrast views with accurate colour fidelity and crisp resolution. The wide 65° apparent angle of view presents an immersive panoramic experience with a spacious 340-foot field of view while minimising distracting hand shake common with powerful optics. Built with a lightweight magnesium alloy chassis, nitrogen-filled IPX7 waterproof construction, and rubber armour with textured palm pads, these binoculars are designed to withstand the harshest elements.
Key Features:
- 10x Magnification with 42mm Objectives – The high 10x magnification enables detailed observations of distant subjects, while the 42mm objective lenses improve light-gathering ability for enhanced low-light performance such as at dawn and dusk or when peering into dense brush.
- Dielectric Coated Prisms with 92% Light Throughput – Dielectric prism coatings boost light throughput to 92% for minimal loss and diffraction, while PC-3 phase-correcting prism coatings eliminate internal interference to improve colour and contrast. This advanced prism system delivers exceptional brightness and clarity.
- Anti-Reflection Fully Multi-Coated Optics – Anti-reflection fully multi-coated optics improve light transmission, contrast, and colour fidelity. These coatings work together with the prism system to maximise light transmission through the entire light path.
- EXO Barrier Protective Lens Coating – Proprietary EXO exterior lens coatings resist external fogging, scratches, and abrasions while allowing oil, dirt, and sap to be cleaned off without leaving smudges or residue. This innovative coating keeps your lenses clear in all conditions.
- Wide 65° Apparent Angle of View – The expansive 65° apparent angle of view presents an immersive and panoramic observational experience with reduced appearance of the distracting hand-shake that is common when holding high-power optics. The 340-foot field of view at 1000 yards allows effective scanning of wide areas.
- Lightweight Magnesium Alloy Chassis – The lightweight magnesium alloy chassis is designed to provide an ergonomic and balanced feel in the hand that provides the strength and stability required of workhorse binoculars. The ergonomic body design positions the hand over the center of balance for reduced strain and fatigue.
- IPX7 Waterproof and Fogproof Construction – Nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed to an IPX7 rating, these binoculars are waterproof and capable of temporary submersion in puddles or shallow streams. This ensures reliable performance in rain, snow, and humid conditions without internal fogging.
- Exceptional 19mm Eye Relief with 4.2mm Exit Pupil – The generous 19mm eye relief improves viewing comfort with reduced eyestrain during long glassing sessions, especially for eyeglass wearers. The 4.2mm exit pupil covers most pupils as they open and dilate in low light to keep the whole scene in view without vignetting.
