Nearby objects will be clear in detail. Mechanism of "Macro observation" The Papilio series uses a convergence correction mechanism in which the objective lens moves toward the center in conjunction with focusing on the object. Even when looking close, the left and right visions will be almost the same for easy macro observation.

Papilio can be used in variety of purposes, such as museums, art galleries, botanical observations, concerts, watching sports , and stargazing.

At museums and art galleries

Embodiment of solid engineering through a long history of production of binoculars since 1938

Since we first introduced binoculars in 1938, we have been studying optical technologies for over 80 years. With the thought that the birdwatching- or stargazing-lovers do not miss a precious moment. When your eyes and our technologies are combined, a new level of excitement will be opened up. PENTAX is always with you.

50cm macro observation Papilio can approach until 50cm from the objects, while normal binoculars can focus them with the minimum distance 2 - 3m. It uses a convergence correction mechanism in which the left and right visions will be almost the same even when looking close, allowing easy macro observation. When you look at insects or museum exhibits, you will get unexpected new discoveries as you can see their details and fine touches.

Full multi-coating Light will be lost little by little as it passes through binocular lenses and the surfaces of prisms. "Multi- coating" prevents such loss of light. As Papilio II has provided multi-coating on all lenses and the surfaces of prisms, it reduces the loss of light and a bright vision is obtained.

High refractive index prism Bak4 High refractive index glass prism with an excellent optical performance. A high-grade prism is used that reflects light completely and produces a bright and clear image over every corner.

Aspherical lens The aspherical lenses realize a clear vision with little distortion over the entire field of view.

Long eye relief Thanks to the long eye relief with 15mm depth, you feel less tired after long observation. Even when you are wearing glasses, you can use it comfortably without any loss of vision.

Rubber casing By covering the entire body with rubber, it has excellent impact resistance and is characterized by comfortable holding without being slippery.
