Tasco's best-selling Essentials line balances optical performance and quality construction, offering an affordable way to add a pair of high-quality binoculars to your household, pocket, or suitcase. The handsome, rubber-armored housing not only absorbs shock and protects them from bumps and bruises, it adds in a weather resistance factor should it decide to rain--or snow--at the big event.
Our most versatile, all-purpose binoculars feature an impressive 500 ft. field-of-view.
The Zip focus system allows you to move through the entire focus range in less than a half-turn of the focus wheel--an excellent feature for following fast action. They are especially suited for use over water, snow and in other bright conditions.

Tech Talk
- Magnification: Magnification is indicated by the first number given. For instance, "7x" means that you will see an object seven times closer than if you were viewing with the naked eye.
- Objective Lens Diameter: The objective lens diameter is indicated by the second number (e.g., 21mm), which indicates how much light is able to enter the binocular. The larger this number is the better your sight will be in lower light conditions.
- Porro Prisms: The distinctive, off-set binocular housings accommodate two internal porro prisms, which are used to elongate the light path to enable higher magnifications than primitive field or "opera" glasses. Porro prism binoculars typically deliver exceptionally high optical quality at more affordable prices than roof prism binoculars of the same power rating.
The Tasco® Essentials® line of roof-prism binoculars are tough, weather resistant and, most importantly, affordable. So whether you're big-game hunting or stopping off to see the world's largest prairie dog colony, there's an Essentials binocular just right for the occasion.
