In brief
Eden Quality XP 8x42 ‘roof prism’ binoculars render an exceptionally clear and crisp image with excellent edge sharpness. 8x magnification, wide field of view plus fast, simple focusing. Filled with nitrogen and suitable for use in temperatures of up to - 20 ° Celsius.
Differences compared to the HD 8x42 binoculars
+ Sharper and clearer image (12% more light transmission) thanks to the addition of special dielectric and phase-correction coatings on the prisms.
+ Even higher edge sharpness
+ 100 grams lighter in weight thanks to the high-quality PPS body
+ Can be used up to a temperature of -20 ° Celsius
+ Top-quality accessories (carry case and carry strap)
Differences compared to the ED 8x42 binoculars
+ Sharper and clearer image (10% more light transmission) thanks to the addition of special dielectric and phase-correction coatings on the prisms.
+ 20 grams lighter in weight thanks to the high-quality PPS body
+ Accessories of an even higher quality (carry case and carry strap)
+ Better close focus distance (1.2 metres instead of 3.5 metres)
+/- Conventional dioptre-adjustment ring at the left ocular, cannot be moved accidentally
- Slightly narrower field of view (129 metres as opposed to 142 metres at 1,000 metres)
- Despite no ED glass, an extremely clear, bright image. Slightly more colour fringing along the edges of the image than with the ED 8x42 binoculars
Optical qualities: wide, bright and sharp image
These binoculars feature top-quality optical elements that are usually only found in much more expensive binoculars.(See Eden Quality price advantage).
The high-quality optics guarantee an exceptionally bright and crisp image with excellent edge sharpness (=sharpness up to the edge of the image). The lenses and prisms are also carefully aligned or collimated, which ensures that you can look through these binoculars comfortably, avoiding possible eye strain.
An outstanding feature of these binoculars is their very wide field of view. This measures no less than 129 metres at a distance of 1,000 metres, which is is exceptionally good for 8x42 binoculars! Coupled with their fast and simple focusing feature, using these binoculars is a piece of cake.
The XP models deliver a very high light transmission thanks to the special dielectric and phase-correction coatings on the prisms. The results are crisp and clear images.
The binoculars can be focused on objects at a very close range, up to around 1.2 metres! This is ideal for viewing insects, for example.
Roof prism binoculars: compact and gas tight
These binoculars are the so-called ‘roof prism’ type of binoculars. Roof prism binoculars are constructed in such a way that the lenses are in line with each other. This makes the binoculars narrow and compact and, above all, airtight as well. This is because the volume of air does not change inside the binoculars when focusing, unlike the so-called ‘porro’ binoculars, where the external volume of the binoculars does shift and the binoculars appear to aspirate and insufflate air when focusing.
Nitrogen-filled: no condensation
During manufacture, the binoculars are filled with nitrogen, making it possible to use the binoculars in temperatures of up to -20 °C without fogging up.
Suitable for glasses wearers
Thanks to the 18mm eye relief and the sturdy ‘twist-up’ eye cups, these binoculars are ideal for glasses wearers.
Eden Quality price advantage!
We have our Eden Quality binoculars specially produced by a manufacturer who also produces a large number of well-known brands. This cuts out a brand and a distributor in the sales chain and that means that the price advantages is yours! That is why these binoculars are comparable with binoculars that cost a great deal more.

Review from www.knivesandtools.nl. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. A beautiful and good viewer, have assumed the distant view of the test vogelwerkgroep Twente, it rated the viewer some very good quality / price ratio is concerned, so I ordered it and it suits very well, (besides my Leica) the bag changed and is much stronger, as I'm concerned the strap around your neck to which the viewer stuck slightly thicker nylon, then everything looks visually slick, Greetings dick | ||||||||

Review from www.knivesandtools.nl. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. During my search on the internet looking for a quality binoculars for bird watching, I came through a test of the Twente Vogelwerkgroep knivesandtools to go, and I was surprised about the price / quality ratio of the Eden binoculars. Because I do not blindly through the internet wanted to buy, call the company and made an appointment for some binoculars in the wild "look. After a warm welcome, I got plenty of time to ease my viewers to test extensively. What I read in the test, was also true in reality, the brand topkijkers Eden, in respect of quality certainly not inferior to the top segment in this market. At some points the viewers scored better than the established brands, which can actually heavily in their pockets. My choice is the Eden 8x42 XP become a winner! Strong light, little distortion, robustness, wide view, quick focus. Personally, I recommend everybody binoculars, because you have the opportunity, despite being a merchant is still assessing the product locally, and as with you. Highly recommended, both the viewer and the company! | ||||||||

Review from www.edenwebshops.de. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. I have the Eden XP 8x42 compared with an equally new Swarovski 8x56. Yes, the Swarovski glass supplied in the twilight, a picture that had a lighter touch. But otherwise I could see no difference as a layman. Due to the huge price difference so the decision was clear. | ||||||||

Review from www.edenwebshops.de. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. Could test it against the glass Docter 8x42. Of the optical performance as a layman I can hardly distinguish it from Docter (which is considerably more expensive). Very clear contrast. Also to be used well in the twilight. Workmanship is good and unlike the Docter with all accessories. A point of criticism I can only cite the Focusierverstellung that was not as precise as the Docter, has what game and went to a place slightly notchy. Can it be this was an isolated incident. Yes you can convert (service is really good). | ||||||||

Review from www.knivesandtools.nl. For your convenience translated into English by Google Translate. Excellent viewer. Have little experience with optics, I can only compare with the cheap telescope Bresser Speed (8x40) binoculars I have used so far, especially for watching birds. The difference with this is very large. The Bresser has a slightly larger field of view, but the Eden XP is much more detail. Everything is much sharper and clearer the more you feel that you object to your toehaalt, instead of you looking for something in the distance. | ||||||||
