Precision Vision in a Compact Frame

 

Struggling to balance optical power with all-day carry comfort? The Midas G2 UHD 10x42 Binoculars deliver sharp, vivid imaging with a wide field of view — in a lightweight, durable design that’s ready for backcountry hunts or backyard birding.


Features

  • UHD Extra-Low Dispersion Glass – Reduces chromatic aberration and delivers crisp, edge-to-edge sharpness with vibrant color — even in bright skies or shaded cover.
  • ESP Dielectric Coated BaK-4 Prisms – Reflects over 99% of incoming light for superior brightness and accurate color in low light or thick brush.
  • Magnesium Alloy Chassis – Ultra-light at just 23.3 oz, this chassis is rugged enough for serious field use but won’t weigh down your pack or fatigue your neck.
  • Argon Purged & Waterproof – Built to handle fog, rain, and sudden temperature shifts — ideal for mountain mornings and coastal humidity.
  • XPL Protective Exterior Lens Coating – Repels dirt, dust, and scratches — because your lenses should stay clean and clear, even in rough terrain.
  • Advanced Fully Multi-Coated Lenses – Maximizes light transmission and image clarity across the full spectrum of conditions — from sunrise to storm.
  • Twist-Up Eyecups + 15.2mm Eye Relief – Delivers a full field of view with or without glasses — perfect for long glassing sessions or shared use.
  • Close Focus at 8.2 ft – Zoom in on feeder birds, butterflies, or flora with exceptional detail — no camera required.
  • 6.5° Field of View (341 ft at 1000 yards) – Same wide viewing angle as the 10x50, giving you the flexibility to track movement across open fields or follow fast-flying birds.

The Midas G2 UHD 10x42 is for you if…

  • You want powerful 10x magnification in a lighter, more compact frame — ideal for long hikes, treestand glassing, or day trips with minimal gear.
  • You bird, hunt, hike, or observe wildlife in diverse terrain — and need optics that perform through rain, fog, and rough handling.
  • You often glass from close range — like feeders or forest trails — and need sharp detail at under 10 feet.
  • You wear glasses or share your optics with others — and need eyecups and eye relief that adjust comfortably without losing the full view.
  • You prioritize clarity, depth, and real-world usability over marketing hype — and want serious optics without the four-figure price tag.


When you're tracking tanagers at 10 feet, glassing over a treeline, or hiking through variable weather, you need a binocular that delivers — without weighing you down. The Midas G2 UHD 10x42 is the sweet spot between performance and portability.

Its 23.3 oz magnesium chassis is one of the lightest in its class — perfect for all-day birding, fast-moving hunts, or backcountry exploration. Waterproof, fog-proof, and built to take a beating, it’s a tool, not a toy.

Optically, it punches well above its weight. The UHD glass and ESP dielectric-coated BaK-4 prisms work in harmony to produce lifelike color and razor-sharp edges. Phase-corrected prisms enhance contrast and resolution — especially helpful when you’re picking out fine plumage, antlers, or movement in shadow.

And thanks to a close focus distance of just 8.2 ft, it’s equally suited for near-field nature watching or detail-rich terrain scanning. Combined with a generous 6.5° field of view (341 ft @ 1000 yards), it gives you situational awareness without tunnel vision.

With an adjustable 57–74 mm interpupillary range, improved twist-up eyecups, and a comfortable 15.2mm of eye relief, it adapts to your face — and your pace — effortlessly.

If you’re looking for premium optics in a more compact, versatile build, the Midas G2 UHD 10x42 is the everyday binocular that’s anything but ordinary.
