Olympus 8x42 EXPS I Binoculars

For people who love observing the world in rich, vivid detail, the Olympus 8x42 EXPS I Binoculars offer the perfect mix of clarity, brightness, and comfort. Built for birders, travellers, and outdoor explorers, these binoculars deliver professional-grade performance at a size and weight that feels just right in the hand.

The 8× magnification strikes the ideal balance between reach and stability, letting you view distant subjects without image shake. Combined with large 42 mm objective lenses, these binoculars gather plenty of light — ideal for early morning or twilight viewing when wildlife is most active.

Inside, the optical system features BaK-4 prisms and fully multi-coated lenses, ensuring exceptional contrast, brightness, and edge-to-edge sharpness. Colours appear natural and accurate, while glare and ghosting are kept to a minimum — so you see your subject exactly as it is.

The long 18 mm eye relief and twist-up eyecups make extended viewing easy, even for those who wear glasses. The central focusing wheel operates smoothly and precisely, helping you zero in on subjects quickly whether you’re tracking birds in flight or scanning a distant ridge.

Built tough for outdoor use, the rubber-armoured coating provides a secure, non-slip grip and protects against bumps and light rain. Balanced weight distribution means less fatigue during long sessions, and the elegant matte finish gives the EXPS I series a timeless, professional look.

People love how naturally they handle — the optical performance feels premium, but the experience is effortless. Whether you’re exploring national parks, attending sports games, or just enjoying the view, the Olympus 8x42 EXPS I Binoculars deliver the kind of detail and depth that makes every moment feel up close and personal.
