The Vanguard VEO HD2 introduces a series of binoculars that delivers exceptional clarity in a durable, lightweight body.

Available in 8x42 and 10x42 models, these full-sized Vanguard binoculars boast a carbon-infused housing that is 20% lighter than aluminium, but considerably stronger. For added protection, the VEO HD2 is housed in a premium Mitsubishi Rubber Armour, making them easy to carry, comfortable to grip, and dependable for years of use in the field.

Despite the lightweight nature of the VEO HD binoculars, they don't compromise on performance, featuring HOYA Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) glass and Vanguard's advanced 6 layer multi-coating on all lenses to minimise chromatic aberration to deliver vivid, accurate colours to your eyes. A seventh super hard scratch resistant, waterproof and oil proof membrane is applied to the front elements for added protection.

To ensure perfect focus for both eyes, there is also an easy-to-adjust lockable dioptre for the right eye, ensuring perfect results. The locking mechanism means you don't have keep resetting the adjustment, allowing you to concentrate on your subject instead.

Three-stage twist-up eye-cups let you perfectly customise the fit for your personal preference, ensuring precision and comfort every time you pull them up for a look.

Although VEO HD2 binocular bodies are designed to eliminate weight, they are equally built to withstand the elements. These 100% waterproof to IPX7 and fog-proof binoculars are there for you, whether you’re enjoying a perfect sunny day or braving the various challenges of nature.

Vanguard VEO HD2 binoculars come with a lightweight and comfortable neoprene bag for carrying at your side or packing away neatly in one of our premium travel bags.
