For every breast or jacket pocket, where they fit comfortably thanks to their pocket-size dimensions. The unusually high optical complexity (16 lenses!) for such small binoculars guarantees a large field of view, high-contrast image quality and brilliant images from the middle of the field to its edge. These precise instruments were distinguished with the Austrian National Award for tested quality. Less

Pros Bright and color correct Lightweight Quality Good accessories
Cons Expensive! Less depth of focus No lens caps (!)
Recommended it? Yes

I have been searching for some excellent quality small binoculars for some time and finally decided to bite the bullet and get a set. After researching the options for quite some time, I got down to the decision point. It was the Leica 10x25s versus the Swarovski equivalent. My benchmarks were... Read full review »

Excellent Compact binocular

Pros Exceptional optical fidelity, compact size, uncompromising build quality.
Cons Expensive, but not more than other glasses at this quality level.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought these compact binoculars for travel use to be carried in my camera bag or in my coat pocket. I considered Nikon, Leica and Zeiss 10x25s before deciding on these. I would say that the Swarovskis are easily the equal of any other super premium compacts available. Color rendition, sharpness,... Read full review »

The field of view is exceptionally wide at 8.2 degrees which makes it easy to locate birds in flight. The centre of the image is sharp and pleasingly contrasty. Half way between the centre and...

Pros Bright image, solid, durable feel.
Cons Mid-Level optics. Kind of a cheap carry case.
Recommended it? Yes

I picked up a pair of Nikon Egret II binoculars when visiting the Virgin Islands last year. I had previously researched binoculars as I've always wanted a pair. I happened to see the Egret IIs in the VI for a nice price, so I picked them up. I was immediately impressed.

I knew that I... Read full review »
