Pentax Papilio II 6.5x21 binoculars

Ricoh/Pentax Pentax Papilio II 6.5x21 binoculars

The Pentax Papilio is a unique pair of binoculars. A compact and functional companion on nature trails and vacations, but its true potential is shown if you are interested in observing insects or flowers at close range.

The closest focusing distance of the binoculars is 50cm, which is a really short rarity when compared to any other binoculars that advertise 'short focusing distance'.
Did you know that the word 'Papilio' is Latin and means butterfly.

The moderate 6.5x magnification also allows for a wide field of view. These binoculars are comfortable to observe objects for long periods of time. Such binoculars, with a relatively low magnification and a wide field of view, are also ideal for young children and older people. The low magnification is very forgiving if you have a slightly unsteady hand, and the wide field of view makes it easier to locate the object with your eyes.

The binoculars have a very short closest focusing distance of just 50cm, so you can observe even the smallest creatures without disturbing their natural habitat, while not losing even the smallest detail!
