Vanguard VEO ED 8x42 Carbon Composite Binoculars Bundle
The VEO ED 8x42 Bundle is designed to offer the binoculars and the accessories to maximise your comfort on any trip, and help you capture the memories on your smartphone.
This bundle includes:
- VEO ED 8x42 lightweight binoculars with extra low dispersion (ED) glass
- VEO Optic Guard compatible neck strap quick release system

The right accessories can make all the difference to the experience of using your binoculars. Here the team at Vanguard have brought together accessories to maximise your comfort on a trip and helps you capture the memories from your trip.
The Binoculars:
The VEO ED 8x42 binoculars boast a carbon-infused housing, protected by premium Mitsubishi Rubber Armour, making them lightweight, easy to carry and dependable for years of use in the field. Despite the lightweight nature of the VEO ED binoculars, they don't compromise on performance, featuring premium extra-low dispersion (ED) glass and fully multi-coated lenses to reduce chromatic aberration and deliver vivid, accurate colours to your eyes.
- Weighs just 640g
- Extra-low dispersion (ED) glass
- Phase-corrected Bak4 roof prisms
- Fully multi-coated with Multiguard® 4
- Waterproof to IPX-7 and fogproof
- Two-stage twist-up eyecups
- Dioptre for perfect focus in both eyes
- Tripod-mountable with adaptor (BA-185 sold separately)
The Harness:
A neck strap is great for everyday use, but can cause discomfort on the back of the neck over longer trips. To get around this, the bundle includes a VEO Optic Guard H harness that spreads the load across your shoulders and back.
This includes Vanguard's patented quick release system that is included on the neck strap, allowing you to switch between the neck strap and the harness in seconds. It also gives you the option of buying a separate VEO Optic Guard WS wrist strap for shorter trips where speed of access to your binoculars is key, or upgrading your harness to a VEO Optic Guard H DLX deluxe harness for maximum comfort at a later date.
The Digiscope Adaptor:
With the ever improving quality of smartphone cameras, digiscoping is a growing trend which allows you to take a photo or video using the magnification of your smartphone camera and your binoculars. It could be to capture a record of a sighting or animal behaviour, or just a memory that you can upload instantly to your social media.
To support this, the bundle includes a VEO PA-62 digiscope adaptor for smartphones up to 90mm wide which allows you to take a photo or video using the magnification of your smartphone camera and your binoculars. It also includes a VEO BT-11 Bluetooth remote control that can be used with IOS or Android smartphones, allowing you to take a photo or video at higher magnifications without the risk of introducing movement which pressing the camera shutter button on your smartphone would cause.
While it is possible to digiscope by hand, we'd definitely recommend using a tripod and to attach the binoculars you will need an adaptor such as the BA-185 tripod adaptor. This simply attaches to your binoculars and the quick release plate of your tripod.
