They are cheap but very performing binoculars. They offer a balanced view, with a large sharp central area and a border that, although getting worse, remains acceptable.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chromatic aberration is present but not exaggerated, and the same applies to coma and astigmatism. In short, an unpretentious instrument but with a field of view that, although small, is well corrected, which limits all the main defects.<\/p>\n

They are waterproof and nitrogen filled.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although not suitable for observing the night sky, because the objectives are too small to collect enough light, they are excellent companions for travel and excursions.<\/p>\n

The only real criticism goes to the case: it is so large and bulky that it makes them more voluminous than my Olympus EXWP I 10\u00d742<\/a>\u00a0which, instead, have an excellent neoprene case that protects them without occupying a whole backpack.<\/p>\n

For a pair of binoculars that you may want to bring with you while travelling, it is a serious drawback.<\/span><\/p>\n

The price fluctuations are relevant: they are great at 140\u20ac, but a little too expensive at 170\u20ac.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
