One of the Austrian manufacturer’s flagship models is the NL Pure 42, a pair of binoculars that offers three levels of magnification – 8x42, 10x42 and 12x42 – along with an ergonomically designed form factor. Swarovski Optik has now launched the NL Pure 42 model in a new colour, Burnt Orange, a blend of natural, landscape inspired hues with something that’s vivid and easy to spot (as opposed to the other colour, a sober green).

Designed for low light performance, especially at dawn or dusk, the Tyrolean manufacturer points out that mountain terrain is a natural habitat for binocular users keen to spot wildlife or navigate during a trek.
Part of the appeal of Pure range is what Swarovski Optik calls ‘Swarovision’, a way of shaping the lenses so that clarity of image is preserved right up to the edge. For the highest level of magnification, there’s a useful forehead rest so you can everything steady and in focus.
