You're about to buy your first binoculars, but can't see the wood for the trees. Vortex understands that your first binoculars shouldn't be too big and certainly not too heavy. That's why Vortex has launched the Bantam HD 6.5x32. Specially developed for young people. The combination of 32mm objectives and 6.5x magnification gives you compact and lightweight binoculars. The ergonomic design ensures you hold the Bantam in the right position with ease. The 6.5x magnification provides a very calm image which also makes the Bantam suitable when you find it difficult to hold binoculars steady. It weighs only 408 grams.
