WW2 Bausch & Lomb 7x50 Mk. 41 Wide Field Angle Binoculars. 7 X 50

Description: Here we have the incomparable and venerated Bausch & Lomb Mk. 41 7x50 wide field binoculars in fine preservation, with some loss of coating isolated largely to the left objective (front) lens. Nevertheless, the view is sharp and clear. The B&L Mk. 41 is probably the finest handheld wide angle binocular ever manufactured. I also have the smaller SARD 6x42 model which is amazing for its size, but certainly not equivalent to this majestic monster. They were made in very limited numbers and are difficult to come by, especially with glass this clean.This is an American binocular that even the most exclusive collectors of Zeiss and Leitz optics are forced to respect: because it is nothing short of phenominal. These Mk. 41s provide a sprawling and razor sharp 10 degree field of view. That's a mind-boggling 525ft/1000yds in a 7x50 binocular which also delivers excellent lowlight performance and high resolution. Now, clearly, many collectors of Second World War militaria will be bidding on this auction. However, I invite hunters and astronomers as well to contemplate the advantages of the wide angle view that these binoculars deliver. You cannot buy anything similar anywhere else at any price. I'm saying that the view will blow you away and your high end modern binoculars cannot compete. Sure, they may be brighter and lighter, but they just can't deliver the panoramic sprawl that makes you really think you have been swept straight up to the target. You get almost the full field of view of the human eye which leaves you wondering "am I really looking through a binocular, or have I been transported to my subject? The Mk. 41 was designed for aerial reconnaissence over the Pacific. It delivers a sharp bright, and stable panorama in one glance. If you sweep these slowly across the field or across the sky, you'll be getting more information in the same time. More than that, your brain will pick up on the details off to the sides subconsiously, enriching your discernment, and causing you to reappraise and focus in more and more on interesting details with every pass. And the comfort of the roughly 70 degree apparent field of view is just out of sight. You can't imagine the difference in feel delivered by the massive Erfle oculars with very long eye relief of over 20mm. The deep eye rielief makes the Mk. 41 especially suitable for use with eyewear, from nothing at all to the strongest prescription glasses. You can even use them with ski goggles. The porro prisms are the largest Porro 1s I have personally ever seen. You will be astonished by the sheer bulk of the housings. Whatever your peers are using is sure to pale in performance, look feeble and fade quickly and permanently from memory when you show up on the field with your Bausch & Lombs. Absolutely a must have for anyone seeking the world's finest handheld wide angle binoculars. 2 weeks money back no questions, as long as unmodified and undamged.
