Carson Optical debuts new model in premium XM HD series

Hauppauge, NY – Carson introduces a new model to their premium XM-HD (High Definition) series. The new configuration is the 10x50mm XM-HD. These binoculars offer signature XM high-performance with excellent optics—plus the HD new technology to significantly enhance light gathering capabilities for even brighter, sharper images in low-light conditions. The 10x50mm binocular is an excellent choice for long distant viewing of nature and wildlife, action sports or astronomical observation. With HD light-gathering, performance technology and large 50mm objective, the 10x50mm model lends itself particulary well to dawn/dusk low light viewing.

Building on the successful XM platform, the 10x50mm XM-HD incorporates premium features and elements key to lightweight, well-balanced, full-sized binocular design. Fully multi-coated lenses and phase-coated optics ensure crystal clear images with less glare and full range of color to allow the user to view and pick out even the smallest details. Rubberized armoring offers protection from bumps and dings and provides a positive grip in all weather conditions. The body is nitrogen filled and o-ring sealed—providing excellent water, fog and dust proofing. Center dial focus is quick and smooth. The 10x50mm also offers twist-lock eye relief cups, right diopter correction and is tapped for tripod adapter. Inculded with the binocular are a soft case, carrying strap, lens caps, binocular strap and cleaning cloth. With a MSRP of $380, the 10x50mm represents an outstanding value and premium performance. Carson’s full line of XM-HD models include 8x32mm, 8x42mm, 10x42mm and 10x5mm configurations.
