Is the Binder telescope made by China Solid Industry?

No, it’s from Japan.

PENTAX is a world-famous optical brand. Its products cover astronomical telescopes, medical endoscopes, glasses, etc. Pentax's brand culture can be traced back to the Asahi Optical Joint Venture founded in Tokyo, Japan in 1919. Asahi Optical Co., Ltd. is a famous optical manufacturer in Japan and has created many world firsts and Japanese firsts in the photography industry.

Pentax began to enter the telescope market in the 1950s, and began to build brand awareness in the 1970s. Its astronomical telescopes, equatorial mounts, and telescope series received good market response and became star products for a time. .

However, due to its consistent high-price strategy and conservative publicity, Pentax stopped producing astronomical telescopes in 2008. However, relying on excellent mirror-making technology, Pentax's product line of sports optical telescopes is still active today, including binoculars.

Binder Binoculars

The Z series is the flagship model of Pentax binoculars. It is equipped with special low-dispersion ED glass and has excellent color correction function, which can restore the details of things to a high degree. At the same time, this series also uses hybrid aspherical lenses and transmittance coatings to maintain sufficient image sharpness. In terms of durability, it uses an oil-resistant, hydrophobic coating and a cold-resistant magnesium alloy body, which can provide better protection.

In addition, with a high eye-point distance of more than 15mm, even if you observe for a long time, your eyes will not easily feel dry. For people who wear glasses, it is also easy to use, and the field of view will be wide, and there will be no obvious vignetting. .
