Tipping the scales at just 234g these Hawke binoculars are not only very small but extremely lightweight as well. These two main characteristics, as well as their comfortable ergonomics and high quality optics, make them an ideal companion for everything from backyard birding, to country walks, hiking adventures and traveling. In addition to being an advantage for uses like for birding and wildlife observation at closer ranges, the relatively wide field of view puts this model forward as an excellent choice of binocular to take along to most outdoor sporting events as it means you can observe more of the action at once without having to move the view about. The minimum close focus distance of only 1.8 meters really adds to the versatility of this instrument as they can also be used very effectively for the close study of insects like butterflies or birds on a nearby feeder for example. Some users also like to take a pair of compact binoculars along to art galleries or museums where a good close focus distance is also important.For a compact binocular the 16mm of eye-relief that these offer is excellent and are one of the few full compacts that will be suitable for use whilst wearing eyeglasses.
Available in either 8x25 or 10x25 configurations, the use of roof prisms and the twin hinge body design that means these Hawke Endurance binoculars can truly be described as a pocket binocular and thus are easier than ever to carry with you wherever you go.

As well as their clever design, these compact Hawke Endurance binoculars feature a tough, yet lightweight chassis which is coated in rubber to provide both protection to the instrument and extra grip. Fully sealed and filled with nitrogen gas, these binoculars are also waterproof and fogproof.Whilst it is common to find simple folding eyecups used on compacts, it is good to see Hawke Sport Optics have chosen the more precise option of twist-up eyecups to make sure you get the perfect eye-relief setting. The one slight downside to this design of compact is the small focus wheel. In cold weather and with thick winter gloves it can make it a little harder to feel and accurately adjust. However, for normal everyday use, this is not a problem and where it is located makes it easy to reach and the smooth action permits precise adjustments. These Endurance binoculars also feature a right eye dioptre so you can calibrate them and allow for any difference in vision between left and right eyes.
These compacts share all the same high-quality optical features and coatings as that of the full sized versions. This includes the use of BaK-4 glass which is considered superior to the BK7 alternative used on lesser quality compacts. Phase correction coatings on the prisms ensure a higher definition image and the multiple coatings of an anti-reflection material on all optical surfaces also increase definition as well as image brightness.
