The Optisan BRITEC R 8×42 binoculars are built around a bridge-free open-frame architecture, resulting in a compact and lightweight assembly weighing approximately 630 g. This design improves handling stability while reducing overall mass, making the unit suitable for prolonged handheld use during extended observation periods.
The optical system is configured to minimise edge-to-edge distortion and chromatic dispersion, delivering a consistent image across the full field of view. The BRITEC R employs fully multi-coated optics with additional phase-corrected coatings on the prisms to improve contrast, colour fidelity, and resolution, particularly in variable lighting conditions. The 8× magnification paired with 42 mm objective lenses provides a balanced combination of image brightness, depth of field, and low-light performance, making the binoculars well suited to general wildlife observation and field use.
Large-diameter ocular lenses are incorporated to improve eye placement and viewing comfort, while the long eye relief and twist-up eyecups accommodate both eyeglass and non-eyeglass users. The open-bridge configuration further enhances ergonomics by allowing a secure one-handed grip and reducing user fatigue during extended sessions.
The chassis is constructed using Swiss Amotec 98 composite material, selected for its impact resistance and structural rigidity. The binoculars are fully sealed and waterproof to the IPX7 standard, providing protection against moisture ingress and allowing for reliable operation in adverse environmental conditions. Internal sealing also aids in maintaining optical alignment and long-term durability.
