Compact, lightweight and easy to handle - the EDX 8.5x50
The EDX 8.5x50 has an open bridge. Together with its low weight of 868 g and length of 175 mm, this design allows the binoculars to be held steadily, even in one hand and with gloves in winter. Robust materials include magnesium, aluminium and polycarbonate. The grippy natural-rubber armouring provides durability and excellent grip and slip resistance. The exceptionally robust eyecups provide optimum protection for the eyepieces, and the binoculars are waterproof and fog-proof. The entire focus range can be adjusted precisely in just 1.5 turns, allowing even the smallest details to be brought into focus quickly.
The dioptre adjustment for glasses wearers is on the right eyepiece and can be locked after setting.

Versatile use
With an exit pupil of 5.88 mm and a 50 mm objective, the EDX 8.5x50 is ideally suited to hunting in poor light, twilight and at night. Nature lovers and birdwatchers benefit from its 8.5× magnification and close-focus distance of 2.4 m.
Premium optics for brilliant images and sharp resolution
Although the EDX 8.5x50 is based on the proven Schmidt–Pechan roof-prism system, the glass types used in these binoculars were newly developed. This innovative ED glass (Extra Low Dispersion) reduces colour fringing even more effectively than most ED glass used previously. The result is beautifully balanced, brilliant colours. The PHC 140 phase-correction coating, developed specifically for the EDX 8.5x50, suppresses 99% of unwanted wave-optical effects and prevents even the slightest blurring. Apochromatic correction (APO) suppresses colour fringing.
Innovative coating ensures razor-sharp outlines
The EDX 8.5x50 reproduces detailed images at the highest resolution currently achievable, without edge blur. This is ensured by the special DDlucid coating additionally applied to the two roof surfaces of the Schmidt–Pechan roof prism. Originating in the Japanese photography industry, this coating is a further development of the well-established ELR coating (Extra Low Reflection). DDlucid is one of the most effective binocular coatings. At present, only premium binoculars feature similarly advanced coatings.

Exzellentes Orni-Glas
Als passionierter Vogelbeobachter verwende ich dieses Glas seit fast 2 Jahren und bin immer noch begeistert. Allein die kurze Naheinstellungsgrenze und das breite Sehfeld sind für Ornis ein wichtiges Kriterium bei der Auswahl einer Optik - aber diese schier unglaubliche Lichtstärke und den Kontrastreichtum des EDX on top findet man sonst nur in wesentlich hochpreisgeren Modellen der Konkurrenz, wenn überhaupt. Die robuste Verarbeitung (und dabei ein erfreulich niedriges Gewicht) sowie das intuitive, wie unkomplizierte, Handling sind ebenfalls vorbildlich.
Top Glas
Top Glas für Brillenträger, hatte vorher ein altes Zeiss und muss sagen dieses finde ich viel besser für Brillenträger. Man kann es super einstellen und dank rastsystem bleiben die Augenmuscheln fest stehen. Auch das Handling ist genial. Ich bin begeistert.
