The Pentax AD 9x32 WP is a compact, light and ergonomic model in the mid-price segment.
The somewhat odd 9x magnification makes this an interesting option for those who think 8x is too little but 10x is too much. Nitrogen filled, fiberglass reinforced polycarbonate housing that is rubber reinforced with an open center that makes the binoculars extremely easy to grip and hold firmly. Screw-type eyecups with several intermediate positions that offer a full field of vision even for eyeglass wearers in the screwed-down position. Soft and easy-to-work focusing wheel with a distinct feel. The diopter adjustment is traditionally located on the right eyepiece and is not lockable. The binoculars are waterproof to a depth of one meter and optically, special emphasis has been placed on a special silver-based coating to obtain maximum light transmission despite the relatively small light opening. The exit pupil is 3.5 mm on this model, which is quite sufficient in most daylight situations. Supplied with case, simpler textile strap and eyepiece protection of good quality.
Note the long warranty period!
