Fujinon 7×50 WPC-XL Mariner Binoculars with Compass
Overview
The “C” in WPC-XL stands for Compass. This model includes an integrated high-precision compass and a rangefinding reticle, making it a complete navigation tool. Like the standard model, it is built with a lightweight polycarbonate body that floats in water, ensuring that a drop overboard isn’t a permanent loss.
Key Features and Specifications
Optical Configuration: 7x magnification with 50mm objective lenses. This provides a massive 7.1mm exit pupil, which keeps the image bright even in heavy overcast or low-light conditions (dawn/dusk).
Integrated Compass: * Features a global precision compass with an error margin of only ±0.5°.
LED Illumination: The compass scale is illuminated by an internal LED for use at night or in low light.
Interference Protection: The battery and activation button for the light are positioned on the objective tube opposite the compass to prevent electrical interference with the magnetic needle.
Rangefinding Reticle: Includes a “Mil” scale visible in the left eyepiece. If you know the height of an object (like a lighthouse or bridge), you can use this scale to calculate your distance from it.
Individual Eyepiece Focus: Each eye is focused independently. Once set to your vision, the binoculars provide a deep depth of field from approximately 50 feet to infinity.
Field of View: 7.0° (Actual), which is slightly narrower than the non-compass model (7.5°) to accommodate the internal navigation hardware.
Eye Relief: A generous 18mm, allowing full visibility even when wearing sunglasses or prescription eyewear.
Durability and Safety:
Floats in Water: The body is naturally buoyant and will stay afloat when used with the included bright yellow flotation strap.
Waterproof & Fogproof: Nitrogen-purged and O-ring sealed to withstand salt spray and prevent internal condensation.
Lightweight: Weighs approximately 910g (32 oz), making it one of the lightest 7×50 compass-equipped models on the market.
Summary
The Fujinon 7×50 WPC-XL is an essential tool for coastal and offshore navigation. By combining high-quality Fujinon optics with a reliable, illuminated compass, it allows mariners to take quick bearings and estimate distances without needing to look away from their target.
