Effortless Close-Range Observation
The Papilio series features the PENTAX-developed Convergent Lens Optical System Engineering mechanism, which automatically slides the left and right objective lenses toward the center when the focus is fixed at a short distance. As a result, the right and left image fields are correctly aligned to facilitate close-range viewing. Thanks to its go-anywhere portability, this new series is also ideal for conventional binocular subjects, including spectator sports, travel and hiking.
-
Extra-Short Minimum Focusing Distance
The Papilio series offers a minimum focusing distance of just 50 centimeters (approx. 1.6 feet), considerably shorter than the two-meter distance (approx. 6.5 feet) offered by similar PENTAX models currently on the market.
-
Outstanding Optical Performance
The Papilio series features multi-coated optical elements to minimize unwanted light reflections for a well-defined subject image. The combination of aspherical optical elements and high-refraction BaK4 glass prisms assures a sharp, clear image with minimal distortion, even at the edges.
-

Compact, Lightweight, High-Performance Monocular. Provides Single-Hand Focusing Operation.
PENTAX Monocular VM 6×21 WP Monocular Complete Kit provides an easy grip by either hand and features a newly designed focus mechanism to facilitate focus adjustment by the holding hand.
Thanks to a minimum focusing distance of 70 centimeters and a wide focus adjustment range allowing close-range observations, this monocular can be used in a wide range of applications, from magnified views of distant scenery to close-up observations of small objects.
Easy Operation with One Hand
It has a compact and lightweight design that fits in the palm of your hand, and the exterior design uses a non-slip rubber coating that makes it easy to grip with either hand. The seesaw-type focus adjustment mechanism allows you to focus while holding the main unit, so you can use it with peace of mind while walking in the mountains or while carrying luggage in one hand.
Wide Range of Ways
By attaching a smartphone using the smartphone adapter "V-SA1", you can not only see powerful images with the naked eye, but also shoot them. Also, if you attach the macro stand "V-MS1" with an LED light, you can use it as a microscope with a close-up lens of about 18x ​​for magnified observation of minute objects. If the object is dark due to the shadow of the monocular during observation, you can observe it while illuminating it brightly with the built-in LED light. In addition, by using it together with the "V-SA1", it is possible to take and save super-close-up images, greatly expanding the scope of use of the main unit.

Close-distance observation from a minimum focusing distance of approximately 50 centimeters
Compact binoculars for both long distance and close up viewing.
We've been amazed at what our BINTEL customers have been using these unique Pentax Papilio binoculars for. Perfect for everything from nature watching and bird observing, through to taking to museums for close up views of exhibitions, checking out electronic circuitry or even examining the fine details on medieval manuscripts.
Highlights
- Close-distance observation from a minimum focusing distance of approximately 50 centimeters
- The first Papilio-series model to feature a weather-resistant construction
- High-performance optical design
- Latest HD Coating to further upgrade optical performance
- Long eye relief
- Easy-to-hold rubber casing
In general, observing an object from a close distance with a pair of binoculars causes a discrepancy in the visual field between the right and left eyes. In order to compensate for this discrepancy, the Papilio III WR incorporates the PENTAX-original convergence correction mechanism, which slides the objective lenses in conjunction with the focusing distance. This unique mechanism lets the user more comfortably observe subjects at close range without suffering eye fatigue.
Since the objective lenses returns to their original position in long-range observation, this model also performs superbly in normal applications, such as birdwatching, hiking, concerts and sports viewing.
The first Papilio-series model to feature a weather-resistant construction
For the first time in the Papilio series, the Papilio III WR features a weather-resistant construction which minimizes the intrusion of water and moisture into the interior, making it a highly dependable observation tool in the rain and mist and at locations prone to water splashes. An anti-stain coating has also been applied to the eyepieces and front plate-glass surfaces to minimize the adhesion of dust and stains.
Latest HD Coating to further upgrade optical performance
The newest high-performance HD Coating* has been applied to some of the optical elements already treated with full multi-coating. Compared with conventional multi-coatings, this assures higher transmittance with less reflection. The result is that the Papilio III WR delivers extra-clear, higher-contrast images even under such demanding conditions as backlighting.
High-performance optical design
All optical elements of the Papilio III WR are treated with a full multi-coating process to assure the optimum imaging performance, while minimizing unwanted reflections. The combination of the aspherical optical elements and the high-refraction BaK4 index glass prisms also delivers a sharp, clear subject image without distortion, even at the edges of the image field.
Easy-to-hold rubber casing
The entire binocular body is encased in a protective rubber casing to assure better holding comfort and superior impact resistance.
Long eye relief
This model’s long 15mm eye relief allows even eyeglass-wearers to clearly and comfortably observe the entire field of vision.
Other Features
- RICOH-original dual-axis eye-space adjustment mechanism for simple, effortless adjustment of the width between the eyepieces
- Helicoid-type eyepiece rings for single-action, push-and-pull adjustment of eyepiece positions
