Built for serious glass time in demanding Australian conditions, the ZeroTech Trace ED 10x45 Binoculars deliver the kind of optical performance that earns its place in your pack on every outing. At the core of these binoculars is Extra Low Dispersion (ED) glass, which minimises chromatic aberration and colour fringing to produce images with exceptional clarity and true-to-life colour fidelity — critical when you're reading an animal's body language at distance or glassing broken terrain for hours. The Abbe-Koenig prism system, combined with phase and dielectric coatings, pushes light transmission to over 90%, giving you a noticeably brighter, higher-contrast image compared to roof prism designs at the same price point. Nitrogen purging and full weather sealing round out a package that's genuinely ready for the scrub, the snow, or whatever else the Australian landscape throws at it.

ZeroTech Trace ED 10x45 Binoculars Key Features

• ED (Extra Low Dispersion) Glass: Significantly reduces chromatic aberration and colour fringing at the edges of the image, resulting in sharper, truer colour rendition — especially important when glassing at distance or in high-contrast lighting conditions.
• Abbe-Koenig Prism System: Unlike the more commonly used Porro or roof prisms, Abbe-Koenig prisms inherently reflect nearly all available light without needing a silvered surface, contributing directly to the 90%+ light transmission figure. The result is a brighter, more contrast-rich image, particularly in low-light conditions like dawn and dusk.
• Phase & Dielectric Coatings: Phase correction coatings eliminate the resolution loss caused by light phase shifting through the prism. Dielectric mirror coatings further maximise reflectivity across the full visible spectrum, both working together to maintain edge-to-edge image quality and colour accuracy.
• Fully Multi-Coated (FMC) Lenses: Every air-to-glass surface is treated with multiple anti-reflection coating layers, minimising light loss and internal flare for maximum brightness and contrast through the full optical path.
• 10x Magnification / 45 mm Objective Lens: A 10x45 configuration is a well-regarded all-rounder for hunting and long-range spotting — enough magnification to resolve fine detail at extended ranges, with a 45 mm objective delivering a 4.54 mm exit pupil for a bright image even as light fades.
• Field of View: 6.4° angular / 112 m at 1,000 m — a competitive field of view for a 10x binocular, giving you a broad sweep of terrain without needing to pan excessively when tracking moving animals.
• Eye Relief & Eyecups: 14.3 mm of eye relief with twist-up eyecups makes these suitable for use with prescription glasses, without sacrificing field of view for those who don't wear them.
• Minimum Focus Distance: 2.5 m — useful for close-range identification of flora, fauna, and insects, as well as bird and wildlife observation at shorter distances.
• Interpupillary Distance Adjustment: 57–75 mm adjustment range accommodates a wide variety of face shapes and eye spacings for a comfortable, full-field view.
• Weatherproofing & Nitrogen Purging: Fully sealed against water ingress and internally nitrogen purged to prevent fogging on lenses when moving between temperature extremes — a common issue in the Australian high country and coastal environments alike.
• Weight & Dimensions: Weighing 930 g and measuring 139 × 55 × 164 mm, the open bridge design keeps bulk and weight manageable for extended carry in the field without sacrificing structural rigidity.
• Included Accessories: Comes with a protective EVA hard case, ZeroTech neck strap, and a high-quality microfibre cleaning cloth.

The ZeroTech Trace ED 10x45 is a compelling option for hunters, wildlife observers, and anyone who spends real time behind glass in the field. The combination of ED optics, Abbe-Koenig prisms, and coatings that push light transmission above 90% puts genuine performance in a package that doesn't demand a premium price — backed by the confidence of ZeroTech's local presence and reputation in the Australian market.
