U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- LUCID Optics, known for more than a decade of refining traditional optics for improved use in tactical and field settings, is featured in the Outdoor Life magazine article “The Best New Hunting Binoculars of 2021” with their B-8 8×24 High Definition (ED) Binoculars.
LUCID Optics’ commitment to delivering a comfortable, lightweight binocular was noticed by the Outdoor Life team. “The LUCID’s build is impressive,” said Outdoor Life’s Andrew McKean. “It features high-definition extra-low-dispersion glass, and the twin-hinge open-bridge design is one of the most modern and comfortable on the market.”
Balanced and lightweight at only 24 ounces, McKean added, “The other side of weight, though, is portability, and testers reported carrying the LUCID for days of field work and marveling at its nimbleness and near weightlessness.”
Integrating ergonomics and user-friendly features is a point of pride for LUCID Optics, says CEO Jason Wilson. “We truly consider the needs of our end-users in product development, and our B-Series of binoculars is no exception. Having this recognition from the Outdoor Life testing team is a great distinction for us.”
The B-8 8×24 High Definition (ED) Binoculars were acknowledged for their optics and accessories, “…in twilight conditions, its colors were among the best in the test, evidence of good lens coatings,” according to the review. “The two-position eyecups are positive, and the thumb detents on the belly of the tubes do a nice job of grabbing users’ thumbs for a lock-solid hold. We also like its tripod-mounting adapter located on the forward side of the front hinge.”
