    Review by 'typo' on item 'KF 8x32W'

    Ill be referring to this binocular the Fujinon KF8x32W, as thats the name on moulded on the body, but I believe the company has now renamed itself Fujifilm, and that might be used by some retailers. The headlines for this review is that this is amongst the highest resolving binoculars Ive...

    Review by 'typo' on item 'Bonelli 2.0 8x42'

    The Bonelli 2.0 is the latest, top of the range model from Kite Optics based in Belgium. Like much of their range it's made by Kamakura Japan who are responsible for many of the better binoculars from the more familiar brands. It's been out a few months now, but has been in short supply and I...

    Review by 'typo' on item 'B/CF 8x42'

    While I've been aware of Docter binoculars for a long time, it's a brand that I've never seen at optics shops or birding shows. I've arranged to borrow the B/CF 8x42 for a couple of weeks to compare to two other models from the upper mid-price bracket which are are also reported here and...

    Review by 'typo' on item 'Albatross II 8,5 X 45 SHR ED'

    I imagine Bynolyt is a familiar name to our Dutch readers but I suspect almost unknown elsewhere. I understand Technolyt owns the brand and distributes it along with other makes. Otherwise a company and brand that I know nothing about but the names crop up every now and I was curious to see what...

    Review by 'typo' on item 'B/CF 8x42'

    Kahles is an Austrian optics manufacturer that's been around since 1896, but in the bird watching world it seems virtually unknown. The company had been owned by Swarovski since the '70s but apparently operates independently. Their website makes great claims for their in-house capabilities, but...

    Review by 'typo' on item 'Eden XP 10x56'

    I guess not many will know of the Eden binocular brand. Indeed I knew nothing about it until Renze de Vries wrote a review of 8x42HD here in the reviews section and KorHaan reported on the 8x42 XP in the Binocular forum. I've been happy to point quite a number of members asking for binocular...
