Pentax PAPILIO 8.50 X 21 (8.5x21) Binocular

Named for the Latin word for butterfly, PENTAX Papilio 8.5x21 binoculars are the perfect choice for insect observation in the field and in museums and galleries.

The CLOSE mechanism automatically slides the left and right objective lenses toward the center when the focus is fixed at a short distance.
