Leupold 8x42 Cascade Binoculars - Internal Focus - Black

During Leupold's second half-century, the company has focused heavily on the sports optics business. Leupold's presence in the hunting and shooting market expands, and finally dominates, with innovative optics and features that are now legendary among hunters, shooters, and outdoors enthusiasts. Many of the industry's standards - nitrogen waterproofing, the Duplex® reticle, and more - are Leupold creations.

From humble immigrant beginnings, Leupold grew, based on a promise of quality, to become a classic American company. In 1907, Fred Leupold set up a one-man shop at 5th and Oak streets in Portland, Ore., to repair surveying equipment. He was joined by his brother-in-law, Adam Voelpel, and later by inventor John Cyprian Stevens, and the foundations for a century of success were in place.

Leupold Cascades binoculars offer a crisp, bright sight picture, twist-up eyecups and long eye relief, even with eyeglasses. The internal focus mechanism means these binoculars have no exterior moving parts. Their outstanding 3-D image representation, the multi-coated optics, and Porro prism design deliver a sharp, bright sight picture with excellent color fidelity in any light or weather. They also feature rugged construction, shock-absorbing rubber armor, and multi-coated lenses for brightness and clarity. Limited lifetime warranty.

The Leupold® 8x 42mm Cascades Binoculars with internal focus offer the outstanding optical qualities of a Porro prism design with an internal focusing mechanism that features no external moving parts for added compactness, ruggedness, and waterproof integrity. These binoculars give you the best of both worlds: the depth-perception optical advantages of Porro prisms, and a unique, internal-focusing design of roof-prism models that make them more compact and more comfortable to use than ever.
