    Meopta vs Nikon

    Hi David, thank you for your answer. There is often a problem here. I cant try out the bino, because it is not often on stock ... Fotoskoda.cz has for trying just Nikon Monarch HG 10x42 (its sold out now, but till 10days will come) and f.e. Kahles Helia 10x42. Pentax is on order, Meopta is on...

    Meopta vs Nikon

    Hi, I read yesterday in one forum about sport optics (but its true in astro forum), and a lot of praise was on Pentax ZD 10x43 ED. What do you think about it? It costs almost the same like Meo 10x42 HD without discount. I read that has worse field of wiew (105m/1000), but resolution and...

    Meopta vs Nikon

    Hello, I am considering Zeiss Conquest 10x40 T and Zeiss Conquest HD 10x42? Zeiss Conquest 10x40 T - abbe-konig prism (this is what i like on it) for more light, but 3m minimum focus distance, field of view 105, made in year of 2005-2012 Zeiss Conquest HD 10x42 - probably newer than that...

    Meopta vs Nikon

    Hi, Thanks for your link, you have posted. I have read it and the best way for me is probably own my present Vanguard 10x42 and buy 12x50 HD yet, but to try it before buying. If I bougt 10x42 HD, I would sell my present binocular and if I buy 12x50, I would have both. Maybe this is the best...

    Meopta vs Nikon

    Hi all, I am back again :-) I would like a last advice. I have an oportunity to buy with that sale Meostar B1 12x50 HD and I would like to ask, if is posible to hold steady it, when is 50 instead of 42mm. Magnifition is 12x. More mm, more light I though. But the best way is to try it in their...

    Meopta vs Nikon

    Thanks a lot to all. I have possibility to try all these Meoptas before buying MeoStar B1 10*42 HD MeoStar B1 8*42 MeoStar B1 10*50 MeoStar B1 8*32 and compare it together (not with Nikon) and for every of them I can get that discount. So I will choose (due to arguments higher) Meopta brand...

    Meopta vs Nikon

    Gijs van Ginkel Thank you. Meopta is manufactured in Přerov in our country and has 30years waranty (Nikon 10) and that is what I like and there is no problem to use warranty. I would like to buy my bino for decades, it is very expensive investition. And you have right, Meopta is recommended by...

    Meopta vs Nikon

    Thank you Lee. That dealer told me, that the Nikon HG is better in optic quality. It can be said that better binoculars can be found at a better price and mentioned Nikon Monarch HG. Meopta is cheaper with discount and although is for a long time on the market, this is one of the best bino for...

    Meopta vs Nikon

    Thank you Lee, one shop has Meopta and another (maybe) Nikon, but 8x42, 10x42 offers on order. Most of manufactured Meoptas go to the USA, so here they are a bit overprised, Ive heard from Czech forum. If i waited for B2, maybe Meopta would increase the price, but if not, it would be worth to...

    Meopta vs Nikon

    Hi Jerry, thanx a lot for your experience with Monarch HG 10x42. I cant still decide. Do you have any experience (or heard something) with Meopta? As i said, i could have discount from final usual price -25% and im thinking, if is worth it and if use the offer. One man from a local shop here...
