The Trace Advanced ED 10x42mm changes how easily a binocular can be carried, adjusted, connected and removed throughout the day. Wear it traditionally around your neck, carry it cross-body for greater security and comfort, or detach the Peak Design strap in seconds for tripod use.
Behind that distinctive carry system is the ZeroTech EDX Optical System, built around premium Japanese ED glass, advanced coatings and phase-corrected dielectric prisms, with dual ED glass in the objective and dual lanthanum glass in the eyepiece in an APO design.
Acquire and track boats, seabirds and surfacing wildlife more easily. Experience more of the surrounding environment rather than isolating the subject inside a narrow optical tunnel. Up to 94% light transmission keeps working as the light fades, while the nitrogen filled, IPX7 waterproof magnesium alloy chassis, twist-up eyecups, internal focusing and WeatherShield hydrophobic lens coatings handle spray, rain and changing conditions.
Protected between adventures, the Trace Advanced ED 10x42 travels in its custom EVA field case, a secure home for the binocular and accessories when not in use. Less tunnel. More world. A wider field. A clearer view. A better way to carry it.

What are 10x42 binoculars best for?
A 10×42 gives extra reach for detail at distance. The Trace Advanced ED 10×42 keeps an expansive 7.6° field of view alongside that reach, suiting open country, coastal observation, mountains, travel and wildlife viewing where subjects are further away.
Can I use these binoculars on the water?
Yes. The Trace Advanced ED 10×42 is IPX7 waterproof and nitrogen filled, with WeatherShield hydrophobic lens coatings that shed spray, and its wide, edge-sharp field helps you acquire and track boats, seabirds and surfacing wildlife more easily, even when observer and subject are moving.
Do these binoculars work for glasses wearers?
Yes. With 19mm of eye relief and twist-up eyecups, spectacle wearers can lower the eyecups and view comfortably through long sessions, then twist them up again for use without glasses.
Can the strap be detached for tripod use?
Yes. The Peak Design Anchor quick-connects release the Slide Lite strap in seconds, and the Trace Advanced ED 10×42 is tripod supported, keeping the image steady for extended viewing at higher magnification.
What does ZeroTech’s Triple-A warranty cover?
The Triple-A Lifetime Warranty covers any owner and any problem, always: unconditional lifetime replacement or repair regardless of fault, for the life of the product, and fully transferable if the binoculars change hands.
What are the ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10x42 binoculars best used for?
The ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10×42 binoculars are recommended for birding, wildlife, marine observation, nature and travel. The 10x magnification with a 7.6° field of view, approximately 133 metres at 1,000 metres, suits open country, coastlines and mountains, while up to 94% light transmission keeps subjects visible into twilight.
What is the close focus distance of the ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10x42 binoculars?
The ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10×42 binoculars focus down to approximately 1.5 metres, getting remarkably close to your subject while maintaining a sharp, detailed view: butterflies, dragonflies, flowers, reptiles, insects and fine plumage detail, without stepping backwards when a subject appears close by.
What glass and prisms are inside the ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10x42 binoculars?
The ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10×42 binoculars use HOYA Japan ED glass in an APO design, dual ED elements in the objective and dual lanthanum elements in the eyepiece, with phase-corrected, dielectric-coated BaK 4 roof prisms and advanced broadband coatings for clarity, contrast and natural colour.
Are the ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10x42 binoculars fogproof in humid conditions?
Yes. The ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10×42 binoculars are nitrogen filled, which resists internal fogging when humidity, spray or temperature swings would otherwise cloud the view, and IPX7 waterproof, with a magnesium alloy chassis built for wet coastal and mountain travel. WeatherShield hydrophobic lens coatings cause moisture to bead and roll away, helping maintain a clear view in rain and mist.
What carry options do the ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10x42 binoculars offer?
The ZeroTech Trace Advanced ED 10×42 binoculars ship with a custom Peak Design Slide Lite on Anchor quick-connects. Wear the binocular around your neck or cross-body, shorten the strap while hiking, extend it to view, detach it for tripod use, or store everything in the custom EVA field case.
