17 November 2023 | Mr
I always had a problem with binoculars not focusing properly for each eye. Then I discovered that the problem was actually cheap binoculars! I have had an Opticron minocular for 19 years now and it has never failed me but now I have both eyes covered.
Truly excellent binoculars.
Waterproof so they can stay outside my jacket.
Light and solid, small but not silly compacts.
The spin out eye pieces are perfect.
The diopter adjustment clicks and stays set.
The focus wheel is super smooth.
The lenses don't fade at the edges.
The lens covers are atttached do you can't lose them.
The rain cover stays attached to the strap.
The strap is comfortable.
Finally, the soft case is excellent.
I just love them and I am sure they will last for years.
FLO delivered as usual with their excellent service. A proper company to deal with.
