With 8x, 10x and 12x magnification, the binoculars are primarily intended for nature-watching – which is why their development focused on maximum optical and ergonomic qualities. Rather than being cylindrical, for instance, the housings are shaped to fit the user’s hands so that they can be held naturally. Together with the optional, newly developed forehead rest, they make prolonged observation more comfortable, as do the barely perceptible edges of the field of view and the 71 degree apparent field of view. The compact mechanism, including the separate dioptre adjustment, is designed to last. Weighing 840 grams and measuring 158 millimetres in length, the binoculars are also very easy to handle.

Jury
The range of binoculars is extremely well coordinated and combines an immaculate design with new ergonomic approaches that noticeably improve handling. The practical focus is echoed in the unlosable caps that provide excellent protection for the valuable lenses.
