The 10×50 Helios Rapide monocular is fully water and fog proof and is supplied with a convenient belt fitting pouch case and table-top tripod. Our sell-out price won’t be beaten or repeated!
The Helios Rapide 10×50 is a truly rugged go-anywhere monocular.Designed with the space conscious outdoor enthusiast and bird watcher in mind, the new ultra compact Rapide mini spotting scopes or monoculars are possibly the best value in the market today.Featuring optical performance equal to, or better than any competitor’s product line, the Rapide is waterproof and features rugged rubber armoured construction for years of performance.Small package – big performance The 10×50 roof-prism design is a top performing monocular for the serious birder and nature watcher featuring higher magnification, wide field of view and stunning light gathering power for great low light performance. The Rapide is ideal in situations where you are seeking the serious optical performance you would expect from a large 10×50 binocular but need the absolute minimum in increase of your equipment burden.The Rapide monocular focuses down to just under 2.5m making it ideal for naturalists and birdwatchers alike.Helios: a new high in the mid-priced binocular and monocular marketThe 10×50 Rapide goes further than ever before to close the gap between the worlds best value and best performing optics and sets a new standard for mid-priced, affordable, optical performance. The 10×50 Rapide is a true state-of-the-art monocular with the highest standard of performance we’ve seen on a mid-priced glass.Power packed performance Delivering a powerful 10x magnification but with good field of view and superb light gathering power to ensure excellent twilight nature and bird watching performance. The sport optics range from Helios all feature rugged construction combined with brilliant Bak4 optics.Fully waterproofed to a high standard They are waterproof to a depth 1.5m of water for three minutes, plenty of time to retrieve them if you have dropped them in a stream or puddle. The binoculars are filled with nitrogen gas which keeps water out and also stops the optics suffering from internal fogging in adverse weather conditions. Waterproofing to this standard requires a high degree of mechanical integrity in the construction of the binocular which is evident as soon as you pick the binocular up or use the super smooth focus control wheel.We don’t expect that you will make a habit of dropping the binoculars into deep water but we do expect that you will want to use them in any weather the planet can throw at you, so you can feel assured that the Helios Rapide can take it, again and again. This ability is further enhanced by the binoculars’ rubber armoured body which protects it from shocks and knocks and makes the binocular secure and silent when handling and carrying. The rubber is stylishly profiled and is black in colour. A nice finishing touch is the tethered front lens cap(the cap is still fully removable if required). The monocular is further supplied with a useful table-top tripod with extending legs.Fully Multi Coated optics are standard features of the Sahara range as are BAK-4 prisms. This ensures that as much light as possible is transmitted through the optics which results in a super bright contrast rich images for the user even in low light conditions where less expensive optics and coatings result in a dramatic loss of performance.For the comfort of the user the Rapide is supplied with twist up rubber eyecup which make them equally practical for people to use with or without spectacles.Light-touch focus – gets you on the action fastThe smooth focus mechanism takes the user from close focus to infinity in around one and a half turns of the focus control knob, and the control can be operated with just one finger, which ensures that you can follow the action however fast it is happening.The Helios Rapide is supplied with extending table-top tripod, carrying case, and tethered front cap.Manufacturer’s 1 year warrantySpecificationMagnification: 10xObjective: 50mmClose Focus: 2.5m (Minimum distance that the monocular will focus on)Field of View @1000m: 101m (5.8 degrees)Weight:420gGlass type: BAK-4Exit pupil: 5mmTwilight rate: 22.34 (Light gathering ability)Tripod bush and tripod: YesWaterproof: Yes (Fully immersion tested 1m for 60sec)Lens Coating: Fully Multi CoatedDimensions: 165x88x60mm (size in mm)Roof Prism ConstructionEye Relief: 17.5mmNitrogen gas filled: YesFully rubber armoured: Dark grey (black)At last, great handling and truly stunning performance at an affordable price!
