The Discovery Channel informs, entertains and inspires audiences around the world about the wonders of our planet, its diversity and its surprises. By offering millions of people the chance to make new discoveries and satisfy their curiosity, Discovery provides an engaging mix of storytelling across a range of genres: science and technology, exploration, adventure, history, and a behind-the-scenes look at the people, places and organisations that shape the world we live in.
We are proud to present the Discovery range of optical instruments, manufactured by Levenhuk and sponsored by Discovery.
The Discovery Flint 8x40 is a pair of field binoculars with a classic combination: 8x magnification and 40 mm objective lenses. They are an ideal instrument for a wide range of outdoor observation activities: tracking animals, taking in the scenery, finding local hiking trails, birdwatching and much more.
The binoculars’ optical design is based on Porro prisms, made from BK-7 optical glass. The fully multi-coated glass optics enhance the contrast and brightness of the images produced, which is particularly important when observing in low-light conditions. Even at twilight or when the sky is covered by low-lying clouds, the images will still be clear and rich in detail. This optical instrument also offers a wide field of view, making it suitable for comfortably observing even fast-moving objects.
The binoculars are easily adjustable to suit each user’s needs. Focus is adjusted using the central focus wheel. Dioptre and interpupillary distance adjustment functions are available. The fold-out eyecups and a long eye relief ensure comfortable viewing even for spectacle wearers.
The binoculars’ body is made of metal and features raised side inserts that provide a more comfortable and secure grip. The standard threading allows the binoculars to be mounted on a tripod for stationary observations.
