The Hawke Endurance ED 10x42 is a higher-magnification binocular for hunting, birdwatching and identifying distant detail in open terrain. ED glass, phase-corrected BAK-4 roof prisms and fully multi-coated lenses provide a clear image with natural colours and reduced colour fringing. Suitable for use Open-country hunting Bird and wildlife observation Identifying distant subjects Hiking and nature observation Coastal and landscape viewing Outdoor and sporting events Early-morning and evening observation Travel and general outdoor use Why choose the Hawke Endurance ED 10×42? Detailed 10× magnification Bright 42 mm objective lenses Extra-low-dispersion glass High-resolution BAK-4 roof prisms Phase-corrected prism coating Fully multi-coated lenses 110 m field of view at 1000 m Close focus of only 2 m Nitrogen-purged, waterproof and fog-proof body High-grip rubber coating Twist-up eyecups with position stops Tripod mounting thread Lens covers, protective pouch and hard carry case included Technical specifications Optical system: Hawke System H5 Magnification: 10x Objective diameter: 42 mm Prism type: Roof Prism glass: BAK-4 Prism coating: Phase-corrected Optical glass: ED Lens coating: Fully multi-coated Field of view: 110 m at 1000 m Angular field of view: 6.3° Apparent field of view: 63° Exit pupil: 4.2 mm Eye relief: 15 mm Close focus: 2 m Interpupillary adjustment: 56–75 mm Dioptre adjustment: Right eyepiece Eyecups: Twist-up with position stops Eyecup diameter: 43 mm Tripod thread: 1/4"-20 UNC Height: 148 mm Width: 109–127 mm Weight: 705 g Colour: Green Gas filling: Nitrogen Waterproof: Yes Fog proof: Yes Supplied with Hawke Endurance ED 10×42 binocular Neck strap Objective lens covers Ocular lens cover Lens cloth Protective pouch Hard protective carry case Carry-case strap Instruction manual Frequently asked questions What does 10×42 mean? The first number indicates 10× magnification, while the second is the 42 mm objective diameter. This combination provides additional detail at longer distances without the size and weight of a typical 50 mm binocular. How does a 10×42 binocular differ from an 8×42 model? The 10×42 model makes distant subjects appear larger, but it has a narrower field of view and shows more hand movement. An 8×42 binocular is usually easier to hold steadily and better suited to woodland or following fast-moving subjects. What is the benefit of ED glass? ED glass reduces visible colour fringing around high-contrast subjects. This produces a cleaner image with more natural colours and makes fine detail easier to distinguish. Is this binocular suitable for eyeglass wearers? It has twist-up eyecups and 15 mm of eye relief. Eyeglass wearers should normally twist the eyecups down, although the amount of visible field can vary depending on the shape of the glasses and the user’s facial features. Recommended products An 8×42 binocular for a wider field of view and steadier handheld observation A 10×42 monocular for compact one-handed use An 8×42 monocular for a wider field of view A binocular harness for comfortable all-day carrying A tripod adaptor for prolonged observation A lens-cleaning pen and microfibre cloth When is the Hawke Endurance ED 10×42 the right choice? This model is particularly suitable for open fields, coastal areas and other locations where subjects are commonly viewed at longer distances. Its 10× magnification reveals more distant detail than an 8×42 binocular, while ED glass helps control colour fringing around high-contrast subjects. An 8×42 model may be more comfortable in woodland, when following moving wildlife or when viewing from an unsupported position. For extended use in very low light, a 10×50 binocular may offer additional light-gathering capability at the expense of greater size and weight. Expert recommendation The Hawke Endurance ED 10×42 is a sensible choice for users who want more distant detail than an 8× binocular provides but do not want to carry a larger 50 mm model. Its 110 m field of view is well suited to open terrain, while the 2 m close-focus distance also allows nearby birds, plants and fine detail to be observed. Hand movement becomes more visible at 10× magnification. During prolonged observation, brace your elbows against a solid surface or use the binocular’s tripod thread. Before regular use, adjust the interpupillary distance and right-eye dioptre to suit your eyesight. Remove loose dust with air or a soft brush before wiping the lenses to reduce the risk of scratching their optical coatings. Detailed observation in a balanced 10×42 format The Hawke Endurance ED 10×42 combines higher magnification, ED glass and weather-resistant construction in a practical field binocular. It is a strong choice for hunters, hikers and nature observers who want a clearer view of distant subjects.
