Hi,
So I have decided against the Nikon Premier SE 10 x 42, as I see they are a close focus of 16 feet! Thats just not acceptable for me, as I like to view
birds on the back porch that are very close.
So, I am looking at the Alpen Wings ED 10 x 42 and was wondering if any folks
here own them, tested them, or have thoughts about their optics and build
quality??
I also have to tell you I have limited choices since I have somewhat close set
eyes and need a bino with a minimum IPD of 56mm. Two binos that I would love to own I have scratched off my list....the Pentax DCF SP and the Vortex
Viper..its too bad because I love the feel and quality of these two, but at a 58 IPD, they both DO NOT work for me
How would the Alpen Wings compare to, say, the Nikon Monarch ATB 10 x 42??
I would really appreciate all your expert advice! Can you also recommend other binos with a minimum 56 IPD??
Thanks!
