gr8fuldoug Report post Posted June 17, 2009 Pentax Papilio 6.5x21 Binocular @ $69.99 We have as new demos of this great binocular. We are offering them for only $69.99, which is a great deal. Named for the Latin word for butterfly, PENTAX Papilio binoculars are the perfect choice for insect and bird observation in the field or in museums and galleries. Each Papilio model offers a minimum focusing distance of approximately 1.6 feet and incorporates new design technology that automatically compensates for the misalignment of the right and left image fields at close ranges.
