Hunter's Binoculars

PLEASE READ CUSTOMER COMMENTS FIRST:
I want you to know how impressed I am by your 4x36 'Hunter's' binoculars. As an amateur astronomer and telescope maker (ATM) I am very critical about optics. I wanted to purchase a quality 'opera glass' for my sister who recently became an opera lover. I looked at some rather expensive opera glasses sold at the Met store at Lincoln Center and on the internet. They looked pretty but optically and mechanically they were really bad! When I came across your web site your 'hunters' looked good. I thought that achromatic eye lenses and 3 element achromatic objectives was 'over kill' for a mere 4x bino. But I was impressed that the lenses were multi coated. Since then I can appreciate how much the excellence of these glasses is due to careful attention to every detail. The view is exquisitely clear. The image is remarkably bright and totally color perfect. I took them to a concert last night. There was no feeling that I was looking through a glass.... It was as if I were actually 4x closer to the performers! The night was clear. So I looked up at the stars thru them. The acid test! Perfectly clear and bright!

Galilean binoculars with 4x magnification are hard to find in nowadays. It is marginal magnification for this type and their optical design usually more complicated and expensive as to compare with 2.5x, which are most common design for Galilean binoculars. Since the design is straight and there are no prisms inside, they are fast and deliver very bright colorful image even at low light conditions. They are same good for viewing indoor events and watching wildlife in the woods where light gathering capability is more important then visibility range since the viewing objects may be shadowed and do not receive adequate illumination. Generally, the viewer may expect very good performance at the distances from 2 to 200 meters in any application where the illumination is a critical factor.
Binoculars built on the hinge style metal frame to allow user to adjust the distance between the optical channels in the limits from 57 mm. to 72 mm. Central focusing mechanism is hidden inside the body for protection from dust and rough handling. Focusing wheel controls the position of the internal assembly with 2 achromatic lenses to allow adjustment in the limits –5/+7 diopters.
Cemented achromatic eyepieces installed in metal holders and precisely adjusted to optical axises with 3 adjustment screws. Metal ocular bushing covers and protects each eyepiece assembly.
Objectives with 3 optical lenses in each have 36 mm. in diameter. Binoculars provide deep field of focus and do not require eye compensation adjustment. Optical channels aligned to zero on the manufacture site by installing the washers between one of the objective lens and body.
Binoculars optics are fully coated. Body parts nicely painted in black with anti-reflection finish. Comes with leather pouch. Weight: 10 oz. Measures: 115x42x70 mm.
