All members of the series feature go-anywhere portability, making them ideal for spectator sports, travel and hiking.

The 6.5x21 is part of an optics series called Papilio, the Latin word for butterfly, because it was specifically developed to satisfy the need for close-range observation of butterflies and other insects.

Need to get up really close in a hurry? You can. The PENTAX Papilio 6.5x21 binoculars incorporate a new mechanism that can offer a minimum focusing distance of just 1.6 feet. That's waaay shorter than the 6.5 feet offered by other PENTAX models currently on the market.
