Image quality 1
When light passes through binoculars, some of its intensity is lost. Each lens that passes through absorbs a portion of the light, just a few percent. But with several optical elements, the amount absorbed is significant. It is therefore necessary to apply a treatment to each element to reduce the amount absorbed. But each treatment has a cost. And the more effective the treatment, the more expensive it is. Design is therefore a delicate balance between efficiency and price.
Image quality 2
The binoculars here feature a BK7 porro prism and lenses with MC coating: multi-coated on one or more surfaces to increase light transmission.
These 2 coatings offer 70% light transmission, good contrast and color rendition during the day, and good brightness at dusk.
Brightness and use
Porro 10x50 binoculars are ideal for occasional use, whether you need a wide field of view vision during the day or enough light in the dark. They enable you to observe all types of animals at any time. Beware of the weather - avoid rain, as they are not waterproof.
They are light in weight but take up a moderate amount of space, making them ideal for short nature outings.
Output pupil
The human pupil varies from 2 to 3 mm during the day, 4 to 5 mm at dusk and 6 to 7 mm in the dark. So it's important to choose binoculars with an exit pupil that covers your entire pupil, to exploit their full brightness to suit your needs. The 10x50s have an exit pupil of 5 mm , making them ideal for twilight conditions.
SHARPNESS ADJUSTMENT FOR SPECTACLE WEARERS
Eyecups can be retracted to suit spectacle wearers.
When not wearing glasses, extend the eyecups as far as possible by turning them. With glasses, position the eyecups in the screwed position against the body of the binoculars.
To see the object or animal you are observing clearly, use the central adjustment knob, turning it to the left or right until you obtain a sharp image.
ADJUSTING THE VISION DISTANCE BETWEEN THE TWO EYES
To correct the difference in vision between the 2 eyes:
Close the right eye and use the central focusing wheel to focus on an object some 50 m away. Once the object is in focus, close the other eye and repeat the operation, this time focusing with the ring near the right eyecup. The deviation is now corrected. There's no need to adjust this ring again in the future.
Payment in 3 instalments is possible from a basket value of CHF 50 and requires the approval of our partner CembraPay. You will be able to choose this method of payment, and consult the terms and conditions and applicable fees when finalizing your order.
