All members of the series also feature go-anywhere portability, making them ideal for spectator sports, travel and hiking.

    Need to get up really close in a hurry? You can. The PENTAX Papilio 8.5x21 binoculars incorporate a new mechanism that can offer a minimum focusing distance of just 1.6 feet. That's waaay shorter than the 6.5 feet offered by other PENTAX models currently on the market.
