  • Just 495g and 117mm tall — Small enough for a jacket pocket.
  • 1.35m close focus — For butterfly, dragonfly, and wildflower observation.

Ideal For

Birders who hike — at 495g with a 151m field of view, the Lynx HD+ 8x30 delivers serious optical performance without the weight penalty of a full-size binocular. Comfort on trail walks, woodland rambles, and mountain birding.

Travelers and nature tourists wanting premium optics that slide into a jacket pocket or small day pack. The compact form factor means the binoculars actually come along instead of getting left behind.

Close-range nature observers — the 1.35m close focus opens up butterflies, dragonflies, and botanical detail.
