    A rare Leica is now on the classifieds

    This is just a promotion by me, I have listed a very clean Trinovid 8x32 BN with red armor. These are not often found for sale, I have only seen 2 for sale over the past 15 years or so. So collectors take notice. Jerry

    Get well card for Lee (Troubador)

    I recently have noticed that Lee has not been on the forum for a while and I so sent him a message to see how he is doing. He is feeling ill and is having some health problems. This time of year he would usually give us a report of Birdfair, and it was always good reading his reviews. As he is...

    It is time for this subforum to be ended. Last post was 9 months ago, and this brand is finished. That means members here have moved on............ Time to just delete.............that is what forums do. Jerry

    Zeiss had the original Fieldpro

    The original Zeiss Victory had the original fieldpro type strap attachment. It seems most ideas are often copied. Jerry

    Zeiss 8x56 Dialyt Classic

    I am looking advice for those with experience with this model. I only own one other 8x56, and I do like older models. I am more of a collector with a binocular like this. I have found one for sale, a T*P model, and looks to be very nice with case and box. Jerry

    "The Big Year"

    The birding movie from 2011 has been discussed before on the forum after it came out. It is about birding competition for how many species one can see in one year. It is entertaining, and is available in the US for Prime members at this time. Worth the time. Jerry

    7x35 - a forgotten class of binoculars

    Allbinos has a recent article about the 7x35 model size. It is a very good discussion of this model and why it has been so popular over the years. Maybe someone can post a link to this, or go check out the Allbinos site for yourself, a very good resource. Jerry

    Which of the older Trinovids are best ?

    This question is about the BA and BN models. For the ones I have experience with, the 8x32 and the 10x50 are very good in their sizes. Jerry

    Swarovski SLC is now morphing into the Kahles Helia S 42

    It has been mentioned Swarovski is going to discontinue the SLC 42 models. Kahles is now offering a new model, the Helia S 42, and it has the same specs. as the SLC. They say it is available in April 2021. Kahles is part of Swarovski. So that means with an armor change we now have a new...

    Eyecups for the Victory SF

    This has mentioned on here some time back, but Zeiss does have a replacement eyecup for the SF. I have the 10x42. checked into these back earlier in the year, but Zeiss was having issues getting settled into their new service center in Kentucky and with covid. So, now I got a set, and the...

    Allbinos - New testing methods

    I found that Allbinos has now changed their testing methods, and I think this makes sense. You may want to find the article and see the results. This has changed some of the ratings of various features, and also has changed the overall rankings of the binoculars tested. Maybe someone can...

    Fungus among us

    I recently had a chuckle when reading a sellers description of a binocular that he has for sale, on an optics website I frequent. The ad included this line. "Left side view has some discoloration, looks like a fungi - please see close up. Which is strange as there is no musky odor to these...

    What did you see in your binoculars today?

    I thought this was a good idea for a new thread on the binocular forum. This was a surprise for me this morning, as I saw this cow and calf bedded down in my back yard. I must admit, I did not need my binoculars to see this pair, and quickly got the camera out for a photograph. This is when...

    2019 - New models EL

    Every 10 years Swarovski has been coming out with a new binocular model in the flagship. In 1999 the EL was introduced, 2009 the EL Swarovision, so I wonder what is coming this year. I think it will prove interesting. Jerry
