very small, close focus down to half a meter, even has a screw hole to connect to a tripod:-O

^_^

same feel as Nikon SE, with more controlled CA, sharper edge and more neutral color tone.

easy on eyes...optically this is the best bino I've ever looked through..

compared to previous generation EL, this Swarovision have lesser build quality, IMHO, such as rubber armoring (it feels cheaper, and not as comfort as the previous one), little glue around the eyecup, nicks/flaws on some ''hidden'' places...

globe effects ?? yes, but I don't mind it....fine with me..:-O

value for money binoculars, good for kids or for travelling light.

but mine has a little collimation problem, so maybe better if we check more than one sample before buying..

very nice small bino for gift or city traveling...:t:

and "made in Germany" too!:-O

even this binos is stated as semi apochromatic...the color correction isnt that great...the sweetspot was relatively narrow..

and the build quality, IMHO is bad....after few months of light use, we experienced loose center hinge and problem in focus knob (uneven tightness and rough). And the diopter lock mechanism was not very well built...

for the price I paid (around $250 new) combined with so so optics and poor build quality, it was disappointing..:-C

perfect natural image...no color shift or color bias...

but CA level is too high for my taste..

about optical quality, I think everyone already know how excellent these little masterpieces are...:t:

For my eyes, this bino has very very very relaxing view, snap on focus....I can fully concentrate on target, no worry about sharpness, contrast or other cause nothing wrong with the view! or in other words, everything is (more than) fine...ehehehe ^_^

but maybe this dont apply on everybody, some peoples experienced black out with Nikon SE..:-C

if you are looking for functional aspect of a binocular..Canon IS will do it right!
