Marcus Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 A timely post! I was after some Bino's so ordered these after seeing your post - waiting delivery, should be here today I was well excited when these turned up the day before we were off to the Isle of Wight. Always a bit of a stressful time getting away at the intended time, especially as we were meeting up with others at a service station at a set time. I was just putting the last few items in the boot, my hands were full so popped the Bino's on the trailer which was attached to the car, so I could put the rest of the stuff in boot when Mrs calls me from inside the house. I dashed back in, sorted whatever it was she was whaling about, locked the front door and got in the car. It was about 4am in the morning when we left, still dark. About 3 miles up the road one of my kids asked why was the boot open? Stopped car, got out, swore a bit panicing about what may have fallen out, shut boot, drove on. A few days on I couldnt remember seeing my shiny new Binos.............then it dawned on me. I had put them on the trailer. I was really mad a t this stage as I had got out to shut the boot but completely forgot about the Binos and didnt think to check at the time. So, Bought Bino's, paid extra to get them in time for my trip. Placed on trailer never to be seen again...............didnt even get a chance to look through them once.

HDAV Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 (edited) This store is new to me...looks interesting! Been around for years used to use them for memory cards and stuff. Shame about the Binos Marcus I was going see what you thought and maybe order myself a pair! Edited September 5, 2010 by HDAV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arjimlad Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 I have bought a pair of these, and taken them out pigeon shooting, and on a walk round a lake looking at bird life. They give an excellent picture. I usually use a little pair of compacts and these are leagues ahead. I'll admit I have no experience of top quality German glass but I am very happy with these. Highly recommended. They are also pretty tough, come with captive lens covers which are easy to use, although getting the neck strap on was a bit fiddly. The neck strap is a comfortable padded thing which I believe will keep the bins afloat if you drop them in the water. Although I have not tested this aspect of them !

Colster Posted September 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Been very pleased with mine, take them out when I'm laying up with the HMR. Exceptional quality for the money, I'd done a bit of reading up on binos and decided I wanted 10x with at least a 40mm front end (my rangefinder is 25mm and really struggles once the light starts to go). Saw these and for £20 and all the good reviews they've had thought they were worth a punt, so glad I did. They do everything I need and I'm not scared to take them out. A friend has a pair of Leica's that cost over a grand, I'd be too scared to use them at that sort of money and you'd be seriously gutted if they fell off your trailer!

Marcus Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 I just ordered a 2nd pair. So, pay twice get one offer - not something we will see in Tescos anytime soon. But I will end up with a pair of these Bino's. Fingers crossed they will arrive when things are a little calmer at the house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arjimlad Posted September 6, 2010 Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 Frankly for £40 you'd not be disappointed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 They arrived today and I have now had a quick peek through them and your right, very good for the money. Exceptionally clear and bright image. I'll do my best to look after these ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
