The low-light specialist in the Apex lineup. The Alpen Apex 8x56 (616) pairs massive 56mm objectives with phase-coated BAK4 prisms for maximum brightness when conditions are at their most challenging — dawn birding, dusk wildlife watching, or scanning the night sky.

What will you see? Owls and nocturnal birds with striking clarity, deer and other mammals moving after sunset, sweeping views of the Milky Way, and nebulae and star clusters brighter than any 42mm binocular can show. A 7mm exit pupil saturates your adapted eye with light.

Easy to use? Yes. Waterproof and fog-proof with a comfortable grip, twist-up eyecups, and smooth center focus. A tripod adapter thread is built in for extended stargazing sessions.

What's included? Binoculars, neck strap, lens covers, rainguard, and cleaning pen.
