Key

An 8x42 binocular is only as good as the experience of using it — and the Midas G2 UHD 8x42 is built around making that experience effortless. The widest, brightest, and most comfortable binocular in the Midas G2 lineup — an 8.1° field of view (426 feet at 1,000 yards), 5.25mm exit pupil, and 18mm eye relief — it's the pick for all-day birding, wildlife watching, and general outdoor observation where fatigue matters more than raw magnification.


Key Features
  • UHD extra-low-dispersion glass reduces chromatic aberration and delivers sharp, color-true images — critical for identifying plumage detail, subtle color markings, and fine texture at any distance
  • ESP dielectric coating on phase-corrected BAK-4 roof prisms reflects over 99% of light through the prism assembly. Combined with advanced fully multi-coated lenses and XPL protective exterior coating, the system delivers brightness and color fidelity that rewards extended viewing sessions
  • 8x magnification with a 42mm objective produces a 5.3mm exit pupil — the largest in the Midas G2 42mm class — for a noticeably brighter image in forest canopy, overcast conditions, and twilight. The 8.1° field of view is the widest in the entire Midas G2 range, making it dramatically easier to find and follow moving subjects
  • 6.5-foot close focus — the shortest in the Midas G2 lineup — lets you observe feeder birds, butterflies, and wildflowers in sharp detail without backing away
  • 23.3-ounce magnesium alloy chassis — argon purged, fully waterproof, with twist-up eyecups and 17.2mm eye relief that delivers the full field of view even with glasses

Ideal For

Birders — the combination of wide field, close focus, and bright image makes this the natural choice for bird observation. The 8x magnification is stable enough to use without a tripod, the 426-foot field of view picks up birds in flight that higher magnifications would miss, and the 6.5-foot close focus resolves feeder detail that most binoculars blur.

Nature observers and hikers who want a versatile, lightweight optic for general outdoor use — wildflower identification, wildlife watching, landscape appreciation. At 23.3 ounces, it carries comfortably all day. If you need more magnification for longer-distance work, the Midas G2 UHD 10x42 offers 10x on the same platform at the same weight.

Glasses wearers — the 17.2mm eye relief is the most generous in the Midas G2 range, ensuring a full, unvignetted field of view without pressing eyecups against your lenses.

Works great but very runny
Set name: Face - 1.7 oz.
I’d call this a liquid and not lotion. It literally pours out of the tube without even squeezing so has to be held upright at all times when the cap is off. Makes a real mess (and I do shake it well before opening as the instructions say). Other than the packaging, I really like the product. It blends well with no white cast after rubbing in, is moisturizing without looking greasy at all or causing breakouts, and has provided good sun protection. Impressed! Also like that while water and sweatproof, it washes off with a gentle face cleanser at the end of the day unlike some of the zinc-based products I’ve tried that leave a thick coating and require scrubbing. This is my first Blue Lizard product and I’ll probably keep using it as a daily sunscreen—but definitely not to throw in a bag and take to the beach because of the messy application. Bought the stick version to try out.

Great for sensitive skin and actually dries clear!
Set name: Body - 3 oz., Set name: Body - 3 oz.
I'm trying to be on top of my sunscreen application after YEARS of never wearing it. My skin is extremely sensitive and prone to eczema. Any chemical sunscreen that was applied to my body (especially the elbow/knee pits) would cause me to break out in horrible eczema patches. I switched to mineral sunscreen, but everything left a ghostly white sheen. Luckily, this sunscreen does exactly as advertised. I've been using it daily for a week straight, and I have had no problems with it. The consistency of this product is thick, kinda sticky at first, and a bit hard to blend/spread out, but I think that's bound to happen with any sunscreen that's actually protective. It may also seem that it leaves a white cast initially, but after letting it dry for a minute or two, it becomes clear. Overall I can't recommend this enough, and I'm glad to finally have a sensitive-skin-friendly mineral sunscreen that doesn't leave a white cast :)

Where has this been my whole life
Set name: Face - 1.7 oz., Set name: Face - 1.7 oz.
Let me give you some background. I’m middle eastern. That means I tan well but have two different skin tones; my January skin and my July skin. I wear a watch and I’ve been out of the sun since September. My tan hasn’t totally faded but the lighter band, that’s my real skin color. That’s how I want to be all over. I always try to make better choices in my skin products. I have tried so many mineral based sunscreens for my face and body but I usually end up returning to a chemical based one for several reasons. HOWEVER, I have finally found the product I’ve been searching for. Blue Lizard leaves no white cast on my skin. It’s easy to rub in. It also does not get trapped in my dense, black eyebrows the way other products did. It would gross me out and look like I had flakes in my eyebrows. I just spent the week at Universal Studios and I did not burn. I didn’t tan either, which is great. Tanning is also a sign of sun damage. Chemical or mineral sunscreens often prevent sunburn but I still tan. I don’t want either. I am sold and will continue to buy this product. I feel great about that it has safer and better quality ingredients.

Works well but oily.
Set name: Face - 1.7 oz.
This works well but is not ideal if you want to wear under makeup. It has a very oily consistency. Price is good.
