Optics

The high-quality optical glass in these binoculars delivers outstanding performance. BaK4 prisms with multicoating maximise light transmission, producing brighter and sharper images with enhanced contrast. The dioptre adjustment range of -5 to +5 is particularly useful, allowing for customised vision correction. With a generous 17 mm eye relief, these binoculars are also extremely comfortable to use, even for those who wear glasses..

Rangefinder

The integrated rangefinder accurately measures distances to animals, buildings, and other objects within an impressive range of up to 2,743 metres (3,000 yards). It can measure up to 2,743 m (3,000 yards) for large structures, such as multi-storey buildings, and up to 1,097 m (1,200 yards) for smaller targets like deer. Measurement data is projected directly into the field of view via a red OLED display, which features eight brightness levels and automatic adjustment to match ambient lighting conditions. With a simple button press, you can switch between yards and metres as your preferred unit of measurement. The binoculars also offer two modes: direct distance (LOS mode) and angle-compensated distance (HCD mode), making them highly versatile. Powered by a long-lasting CR2 battery, these binoculars are always ready for action.

User-friendly design

The ALPEN OPTICS Chisos 10x42 binoculars excel in portability with their compact dimensions of 165 x 130 x 63 mm and lightweight design at just 890 g. The sturdy aluminium housing is both lightweight and durable, while the rubber armouring ensures shock resistance and a secure, comfortable grip, even during extended use.

Crystal-clear images with premium quality optics

Unlike the standard BK-7, the optics are made from BaK-4 glass (barium crown glass) that produces even sharper and brighter images. The high-quality BaK-4 glass optics are used in all ALPEN Optics products sold in Europe.

More light for clearer images

The optics are fully coated with a premium multi-layer coating, which increases the light transmission to up to 95% to produce stunningly bright images.

Weatherproof design

The binoculars are filled with nitrogen, which prevents the inside of the lenses from fogging up and obstructing your view during abrupt changes in temperature.

Waterproof design

The housing features a splashproof design, which protects the optics during rain and adverse weather.

Easily adjustable for glasses wearers

Thanks to the twist-up eyecups, the design is also suitable for people who wear glasses. The distance between your eyes and the lenses can be easily adjusted to allow you to see the complete field of view.

Fine tune to your vision

The built-in dioptre adjustment allows you to quickly adjust the optics to your vision and compensate for differences between your left and right eyes.

Tripod connection thread

Thanks to the tripod connection thread, the optics can be quickly mounted on a tripod so that you can enjoy shake-free images of animals or nature.

Precise rangefinder

Know how close you are to your target – the built-in rangefinder measures the distance to animals, buildings and other objects with precision, up to range of 2286 metres.

Brighter images

The ultra-bright coating lets even more light into your eyes so that you won’t be left in the dark during twilight and in challenging light conditions.

Nitrogen filling

The temperature can change rapidly when you’re out in the wild. To prevent the lenses from fogging up on the inside and obstructing your view, the optics are filled with nitrogen.

Stunning true-colour images

The high-performance ED glass significantly reduces scattered light and prevents chromatic aberration, enabling you to observe true-colour, brilliant images of wild animals, landscapes and more.
