The ZEISS Terra ED 8×42 combines the bright performance of 42 mm lenses with the steady, easy-to-hold 8× magnification. ED glass, 88% light transmission and the hydrophobic LotuTec coating deliver crisp, high-contrast images from daylight to dusk. With its wider field of view, the Terra ED 8×42 is an excellent choice for birding, hiking and general nature observation.
A rugged, nitrogen-filled housing ensures durability in all weather conditions, while the ergonomic design offers comfortable handling during extended use. Compared to compact models, the 42 mm objective provides noticeably better low-light capability without adding excessive weight.
