Product description for Vixen Atera II ED 16x50 WP Image-Stabilized Binoculars - Demo Model (without case)

Vixen Atera II ED 16x50 WP
Image-Stabilized Binoculars with ED Optics

The Vixen ATERA II ED H16×50WP binoculars offer outstanding image quality and feature ED lenses that provide a sharp and detailed view. As the flagship model of the Vibration Canceller series, it offers powerful image stabilization, allowing you to hold the binoculars steady even at 16x magnification without a tripod. These binoculars provide a unique viewing experience, making distant objects appear as if they were right within reach.

High-Performance ED Glass Lens
The lens, which is crucial to performance, is made of ED glass (special low-dispersion glass), which delivers exceptionally outstanding optical performance. Despite the high 16x magnification, it delivers sharp images with minimal chromatic aberration.

Built-in Vibration Suppression System! Stable Image Despite Shaking
Binoculars are convenient for handheld use, but high magnifications can cause disruptive vibrations that blur the image. The Atera II ED H16×50WP is equipped with an image stabilization system featuring a 2-axis gimbal control system that effectively compensates for vibrations. This ensures an extremely stable field of view even at 16x magnification—a level that previously required the use of a tripod—making it suitable for a variety of observation scenarios.

Recommended for:

  • Birdwatching:Detailssuch as birds’ eyes and feather patterns are clearly visible.
  • Stargazing:Evenfaint stars are visible without blurring.
  • Live concerts:Artistsand their outfits can be tracked smoothly.

Two types of vibration suppression modes that can be selected as needed
The ATERA II ED H16x50WP offers two vibration suppression modes that can be switcheddepending on the usage scenario. V1 mode absorbs small vibrations, while V2 mode compensates for slow and larger movements.

Three different optical coatings provide a clear and sharp field of view
All lens surfaces are coated with more than seven layers of anti-reflective multi-layer coatings (flat multi-coatings), which offer Vixen’s highest level of anti-reflection. This reduces light loss compared to conventional 3-layer multi-coatings and ensures exceptional contrast and brightness.

Prisms with phase coatings reduce halation and significantly increase resolution. Each optical surface of the auxiliary prisms is equipped with super-high-reflective (SHR) coatings that use dielectric multilayers.

These three optical coatings eliminate stray light and light loss to an exceptionally high degree, resulting in a sharp, detailed, high-contrast view that only a top-of-the-line model can provide.

Hydrophobic coatings ensure clear vision
Dirt adhering to the lenses, especially the eyepiece, can impair the binoculars’ high optical performance by reducing contrast and resolution. The ATERA II ED H16×50WP is therefore equipped with a special coating that prevents dirt from adhering to the surfaces of the objective lens and the eyepiece, ensuring you get the best possible performance every time you use them. Even fingerprints or dirt can be easily wiped away, keeping the surface clean at all times.

The grip strap helps you hold the binoculars securely with one hand
The included grip strap reduces hand fatigue by distributing the grip force not only across your fingers but also across the back of your hand. This allows you to hold the binoculars with one hand even during extended use without getting tired. This is especially useful at concerts. The strap is available in five colors and is adjustable. A neck strap is also included as standard equipment.

The Ergonomic Design and Ease of Use of the
Binoculars The narrow center section of the binocular body, which also serves as the center of balance, allows for easy handling with your fingers. Despite the large 50 mm objective lens, the model offers excellent grip and minimizes fatigue even during extended use. Additional features include a smooth-operating focus wheel that can be operated with one finger, a universal design for both left- and right-handed users, and a battery compartment that does not interfere with finger movements.

Up to 16 hours of operating time with two AAA batteries
The binoculars can operate continuously for up to 16 hours on just two AAA alkaline batteries. They feature an automatic shut-off function that turns them off after 90 minutes of inactivity to extend battery life (based on new alkaline batteries at 20°C). The battery cover is integrated into the Body, so there’s no risk of losing it, even in the dark.

Waterproof Design for Safe Outdoor Use
The binoculars feature a waterproof rating (optical system: IPX7 equivalent, battery compartment: IPX4 equivalent), which is filled with inert nitrogen gas and allows for safe use both indoors and outdoors. It comes with a convenient binocular case that includes transparent pockets for smaller items.
