Hi all
Does anyone here have experience of this binocular, in either 8x42 or 10x42?
Alpen Teton 10x42
It seems to be a very reasonable price for an A-K roof with a magnesium chassis and ED glass, and has garnered some decent reviews though there is not as much exposure as the bigger brands. If it has higher than average CA or low contrast like some of the cheaper MIC gear then it won't be a good match to my needs.
I'm thinking about the 10x42 as a fairly affordable way to dip my toe into 10x power for waterfowl and birds of prey at a distance. I'm not going to get a chance to look at one before I buy which makes me a bit nervous so I have asked about their returns policy.
