The Kite Petrel 10x50 costs 499 euros, weight 719 g, eyerelief 19 mm, light transmissin 85-86% (comparable to the Leica Ultravid 10x50HD and better than the Zeiss Conquest 10x50), FOV 88m/1000m, 1,25 rotations of the focussing wheel from close focus to infinity or the other way around, very good color reproduction and very good handling comfort. The binocular has Schmidt-Pechan roof prisms with phase correction coatings.
Alltogether an attractive instrument in this price range also for the high after sales service level (30 years guarantee).
