    GPO PASSION HD 8x42 Video Review

    Thanks for the review Piergiovanni ! I tested the GPO Passion HD vs Nikon Monarch HG 10x42 and, I can't forget the incredible weight (850g !), the small field of view and the lack of field flattener. For a 1000€ binocular it's not normal. The oculars are not confortable (not adapted at my face)...

    The strap loop is at the center of the grip, where is located the hollow for the thumb : it's very inconfortable ! (n)

    GPO with an Alpha body ? But not an Alpha ingineering... (i.e. photo) I don't find the GPO warmer and sharper than Nikon MHG (in the 10x). Edge to edge, the MHG are, in my impression, sharper.

    For me, the GPO Passion HD are not in the same league than the Nikon MHG : the eyecups are inconfortable, they are too heavy, the FOV is poor and they produce more flare in opposite light. Just the price is the same (in Europe). :unsure:

    Inter-pupillary distance (B) is not good for my face (see photo). If (B) is adequate, (A) is too tight for my nose... 👃 😤

    Product Review: The GPO Passion HD 10 x 42.

    To resume my test : The GPO Passion HD 10x42 are 178g heavier than the Nikon Monarch HG, They are (for me) very inconfortable (oculars and hand-bump). Optically, the Monarch HG are a little more sharp edge to edge and le focusing is more relax. CA are well controlled on both but a little...

    Legend M 10x42 - quick test

    It's difficult to have a clear view on the pics/thumbnails and yes, the two shots are the center and the border... I tried the SF and the Legend M and L (and the news Nikon Manarch HG) in the same time. You are right : in the center, the sharpeness could appear similar. SF borders are a...
