It seems rather unfortunate that the much anticipated 8x and 10x 32SF binoculars are due to reach the market any time now.
I wonder how safe it is to try various models of binocular at your local retailer or optical event at a nature reserve? What hygiene precautions are recommended indeed will optical demonstrations at well known nature reserves in the UK be cancelled?
I am now in the vulnerable 70s and anticipate self -isolation "in the next few weeks". Details of what this means will be clarified soon apparently.
We in the UK are recommended to wash our hands using soap and warm water while singing singing two verses of "Happy Birthday" to ensure a 20 second hand wash. I guess we should wash our hands each time we finish looking through a binocular and that eye cups are wiped with a suitable antivirus solution.
