Zoom In On Distant Detail With Unmatched Clarity

 

Tired of distant subjects looking washed out or hard to track? The Alpen Chisos 12x50 ED binoculars bring faraway wildlife and landscapes into sharp, vivid focus—without eye strain, fogging, or dull image quality.


Features

  • ED Glass for Stunning Color Accuracy – Extra-low dispersion glass reveals crisp detail and minimizes color fringing, even at higher magnifications.
  • Large 50mm Objective Lenses – Gather more light for brighter, bolder images—ideal for dawn, dusk, or shaded terrain.
  • Fully Multi-Coated Optics + PXA Phase-Coated Prisms – Enhanced clarity and contrast in any lighting with maximum light transmission.
  • Waterproof & Fog-Proof with Nitrogen Purging – Built to handle sudden weather shifts and rugged outdoor conditions without internal fogging.
  • Durable Magnesium Housing with Textured Grip – Rugged yet manageable in the field, with a design that stays secure in wet or gloved hands.
  • Twist-Up Eyecups and 16mm Eye Relief – Comfortable, fatigue-free viewing—whether or not you wear glasses.
  • Wide Apparent Field of View: 8.2° – Scan sweeping landscapes or track fast-moving birds with ease, even at 12x magnification.

The Alpen Chisos 12x50 ED is for you if…

  • You regularly scan long distances across open landscapes, wetlands, or mountains and need powerful, stable magnification with exceptional brightness.
  • You’ve been let down by dim, shaky views from other high-power binoculars and want a more stable, high-contrast experience.
  • You watch wildlife during early morning or late evening hours and need optics that pull in light when conditions are less than ideal.
  • You wear glasses and want full-field viewing without adjusting your position constantly.
  • You want pro-level performance in a durable, waterproof design that can handle your toughest trails, climbs, and backcountry expeditions.

When you’re observing wildlife from a distance, detail is everything. The Alpen Chisos 12x50 ED gives you the reach and resolution you need to spot, identify, and enjoy faraway subjects without sacrificing color fidelity or image clarity.

With premium ED glass, advanced prism coatings, and large 50mm objective lenses, these binoculars excel in low-light conditions and long-range glassing. Whether you’re scanning cliffs for raptors or observing elk across a meadow, the Chisos brings distant subjects into brilliant, sharp focus.

Despite the higher magnification, the image remains bright and stable thanks to the intelligent optical design and premium BK4 roof prisms. The wide 8.2° apparent field of view helps you stay oriented and track moving subjects with less effort—making them ideal for birders and wildlife spotters alike.

Close-up viewing isn’t sacrificed either. With a close focus distance of just 8.2 feet, you can still enjoy sharp detail on nearby birds, butterflies, or flowers during your hikes.

Comfortable to hold and easy to use for extended sessions, the Chisos 12x50 ED features twist-up eyecups and 16mm of eye relief for an enjoyable viewing experience, whether you wear glasses or not. The lightweight magnesium housing adds durability without unnecessary bulk.

And with Alpen’s lifetime warranty (with registration), your investment is protected for years of outdoor adventure. Because when you explore with purpose, your optics should perform with precision.
