About this deal

This is a super-compact telescopic scope that also features a non-stepped illuminated reticle perfect for Airsoft rifles or compact air rifles where you need lightness and reliability. Please note : Pentax now produce a newer version of this Pentax DCF 9x32 BC binocular, which I have also reviewed here: Pentax AD 9x32 WP. When I spoke to the guys at Pentax about which binoculars I should review for them next, I said that I wanted a quality pair of optics and if possible something that stands out a little from the crowd. That was when they introduced me to the DCF BC 9x32 binoculars. It comes with a whole host of quality features as wall as a fairly unique 9x magnification. Are these the ideal binoculars for those who can't decide between an 8x and 10x magnification? Take a look at my full review of the Pentax 9x32 DCF BC binoculars: So to sum up, I rate the view through these Pentax's as being very good and easily as good as many binocular far more expensive than these.

I really love the twist-up (helicoid) mechanism on these Pentax binoculars - it is very smooth and has an impressive 5 fixed stops (3 intermediate), meaning that eyeglass wearers have a huge amount of flexibility when adjusting the eye-relief to suit their exact needs. The maximum of 16mm of eye-relief is pretty good and should be enough for most people who wear glasses to be able use these optics without having to remove their glasses and still get the full field of view without any vignetting. Non-eyeglass wearers will just use the eyecups in the fully extended position. Proper fraction button and Improper fraction button work as pair. When you choose the one the other is switched off. The amount of softening of the image on the periphery of the view was extremely minimal and definitely wont bother you. So once again rate these very highly in this department. The air inside of the binocular has also been replaced with dry nitrogen gas during the manufacturing process to prevent internal fogging and thus makes it possible to use the binoculars in places where there are rapid temperature changes, very low temperatures or high humidity levels without the risk of any condensation forming on the inside the binocular. Another benefit of this is that because there is no internal moisture, it also protects the inner workings from corrosion. The eyepiece on this Pentax binocular consists of 5 elements in 3 groups, with the outermost ocular lens having a diameter of 18mm. The 32mm objective lenses consists of 3 elements arranged into 2 groups. Pentax have used good quality BaK-4 roof prisms on these 9x32 binoculars as opposed to the cheaper and inferior BK-7 prisms. These prisms and lenses also have a number of coatings that help to increase their transmittance and the quality of the image produced:These Pentax 9x32 binoculars weigh just 500g (17.6oz), which for a quality mid-sized binocular with objective lenses of around 32mm is very light. For comparison, the excellent Minox 8x33 BL Binoculars weigh 649g (22.9oz) and the top of the range Nikon EDG 8x32 weigh 655g (23.1oz), and the very best Swarovski 8x32 Traveler EL weighs 610g (21.5oz) I felt that the overall balance of these Pentax DCF binoculars was excellent and this is where the thumb indents that encourage you to get your hands into exactly the right position help. Whilst the balance on smaller, lighter binoculars like these might not be quite as important or even noticeable as on larger optics, it is still something that should be taken into consideration. A badly balanced binocular will be far less comfortable to use, especially over longer periods of observation. A well balanced binocular like this is also far easier to keep still, which helps you to maintain a steady, shake free view. Hard drive retention: Hard drive retention is not available on models with a soldered hard drive, including XPS 9315 2in1, Chromebooks or Venue tablets, except the Venue 11 Pro.

Note: Whilst these silver mirror coatings are excellent and increase the reflectivity compared to most standard binoculars on the market, some optical manufacturers go even further and use dielectric prism coatings that have a reflectivity of more than 99% - but these are usually only found on binoculars at the very top end of the market. A polynomial with rational coefficients can sometimes be written as a product of lower-degree polynomials that also have rational coefficients. In such cases, the polynomial is said to "factor over the rationals." Factoring is a useful way to find rational roots (which correspond to linear factors) and simple roots involving square roots of integers (which correspond to quadratic factors). Optical quality has definitely improved at the lower mid-price level, but neither choice of narrowish FOVs with decent edges or WFs with poor edges is appealing to me.

Please note:

Focusing is achieved via the very large (diameter 33mm) center focus knob, which on the sample that I used turned smoothly, but was fairly tight. It looks to be made from a combination of metal and a very hard plastic that has then been covered with a ridged rubberized coating to help with grip. Holding the binoculars up to my eyes, it was easy to reach and I had no problems adjusting the focus without having to change my grip. The Konus Fire 3-9X32 Rifle Scope is a great choice for shooters who are looking for an inexpensive yet depandable instrument, as well as they are supremely suited as “first scopes” for every beginner sportsman. These models really stand out as the best and ultimate Rifle Scope and will give every avid sportsman the chance to step on the field knowing that they can now successfully take even the most prohibitive shot. These scopes stand out as excellent value for money and includes a 2 Year Warranty; Konus Rifle Scopes give every demanding sportsman the chance to step on the field and successfully take even the most difficult shot.

I posted something in the Sightron Blue Sky thread as the two appear to be practically identical binoculars. Specs are below.... I'm amazed at how saturated the market is for low priced bins even though many are actually re-badged clones, not new models. I guess more people than just you and Frank must be buying them or they wouldn't keep coming out with new clones every few months. Rational functions are quotients of polynomials. Like polynomials, rational functions play a very important role in mathematics and the sciences. Just as with rational numbers, rational functions are usually expressed in "lowest terms." For a given numerator and denominator pair, this involves finding their greatest common divisor polynomial and removing it from both the numerator and denominator. It is also very important to remember that the size of the objective lens and the amount of light a pair of optics can capture is not the only factor in ensuring how bright the image you see through them is. Image brightness (and quality) is also very dependent on the quality of the optical system and their transmittance levels. Good coatings on the lenses and the prisms can double the amount of light that gets through the binocular, when compared to those that have none or poor quality coatings and as we have already discovered these Pentax binoculars use very good quality glass and coatings and that is why they produce a really good quality and bright image.Strong Points: What really impressed me with these Pentax binoculars was just how light they are, yet they body still feels tough enough to handle most normal uses. The open bridge design not only looks good, but makes them comfortable to use when glassing and really secure to carry about even in one hand. Their twist up eyecups with a generous 16mm of eye-relief and 5 fixed stops are some of the best that I have ever used. Overall, I thought that the quality of the view through them was very good and easily matches a lot of binoculars that cost much more than these. These Pentax have a field of view of 117m at a distance of 1,000 metres (=351 feet at 1,000 yards = 6.7°), which is pretty good, but does possibly fall a little short of what I was really hoping for. Let me explain: The minimum close focusing distance is a decent 2.5m (8.2ft). I regard anything under 6ft as being excellent. These will hold their own if you are looking for a good general all round mid size binocular for occasionally viewing objects close up ( butterflies for example), but I would not recommend them if this is your main intended use for them. Wolfram|Alpha is a great tool for factoring, expanding or simplifying polynomials. It also multiplies, divides and finds the greatest common divisors of pairs of polynomials; determines values of polynomial roots; plots polynomials; finds partial fraction decompositions; and more.

Ideal Uses: Like most mid-sized binoculars these are ideal travel binoculars, perfect to take on a camping trip. Their size and 9x magnification means they also make excellent safari binoculars, especially if you like to observe birds as well as the larger land fauna that Africa is most famous for. As such, I would also say that these Pentax binoculars would be great for general wildlife observation and even some types of hunting where size and weight are important. Like most mid-sized binoculars these make a good all-round general use binocular. Mid-sized binoculars often come with 32mm objective lenses, this is because they strike a good balance between light gathering potential and size of the actual device. As well as the phase correction coatings, Pentax also use "silver-evaporated coatings" on the BaK-4 roof prisms. These coatings are added because whilst the roof prism design has many advantages over the porro prism design, it does have one major problem in that one surface of the prism does not have total internal reflection. Therefore to get the best optical performance it is very important for to raise the reflectivity of this surface and to do this, a mirror coating is used on those surfaces.

Polynomials with rational coefficients always have as many roots, in the complex plane, as their degree; however, these roots are often not rational numbers. In such cases, the polynomial will not factor into linear polynomials. Their dimensions of 12.8 x 13.8 x 5.2cm (5.0 x 5.4 x 2.4in) is pretty good and they compare well with most other quality mid-sized binoculars: As a reference the Swarovski 8x32 Traveler EL has dimensions of 13.8 x 11.4 x 6.0cm Proper fraction button is used to change a number of the form of 9/5 to the form of 1 4/5. A proper fraction is a fraction where the numerator (top number) is less than the denominator (bottom number).
