    I have two 42 mm binoculars: Zeiss Victory FL 7x42 and Leica Noctivid 8x42 and I would like to keep only one but I can't decide because I love both : the over saturated colors of Noctivid and the cleaner colors of Victory.

    Impressed by my new Nikon Monarch HG 8X30

    I recently had a Nikon Monarch HG 10X42. I don't really like the 10x format because I can't keep it very stable but the price of 450 euros new in the original box with documents, warranty plus accessories was very tempting. I was very impressed with the image quality so I decided to sell it and...

    Opticron Imagic BGA 8x42 versus BGA SE 8x42

    I have some very good binoculars like: Zeiss Victory FL 8x42, Steiner Nighthunter 8X56 latest model and Canon IS 14x32. I noticed a very annoying thing: many times when I need a binocular, I don't have one with me. I seriously think about selling all my binoculars and getting one that I can...
