Updated for 2019, the Barska 8x21 Lucid View Compact Binoculars feature a redesigned housing that gives them a sleek and stylish design that is still comfortable to hold for viewing sporting events, backpacking, hiking, general nature viewing, and sightseeing. The new design features diamond-textured palm pads that provide positive traction for your hands to improve the armor's slip-resistance. Barska retained the performance aspects of previous versions including the BK7 roof prisms, anti-reflection fully coated optics, and a generous 383-foot field of view. To make them easier to pack and carry, the bridge is made with dual hinges that allow the optical tubes to fold and tuck under so the binoculars' profile is minimized to easily fit in most pockets, packs, or purses. This version of the Lucid View is offered here with a case and neck strap in clamshell packaging.
