Design Features
The strong housing of the KOMZ binoculars is made of aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy is famous for its high ductility, high electrical and thermal conductivity, as well as resistance to corrosion. And besides, binoculars are lightweight due to such material. Due to maintaining various temperature ranges, the device can be used both in the tundra and in the desert zone.
The coating is made rough. This is achieved thanks to the artificial skin, and therefore the binoculars can be easily held even if the hands are wet or gloves are worn on them. This coating also provides protection against scuffs and scratches. The classic design was developed using a rotating system based on Porro prisms.
To improve image quality and increase brightness, as well as contrast, a special multilayer antireflection coating is applied to the surface of the lenses. The central focusing is set on the binoculars, due to which you can quickly, without interrupting the observation, refocus and focus on the desired object. To adjust the KOMZ binoculars to the base of the eyes, you need to adjust the interpupillary distance. This is done in order to ensure comfort of observation.
All users note good image quality, light weight and the fact that hand shake will be almost imperceptible at maximum magnification distances. With the help of such universal binoculars you can easily go hunting, make hiking trips. When using the technique, no creaks and backlashes are observed, but it takes some time to get used to the ergonomics of the product.
