    Review by 'kwikstaart' on item '7x42 T* FL / 8X42 T* FL / 10X42 T* FL'

    After about 4 years (and not 10 as I hoped ;-)) I traded this one in for a new Nikon EDG (II) 8x42). Please see my review over there. In short: richer colors (Zeiss almost too bright, too white), sahrper, handling, focusknow.

    Review by 'kwikstaart' on item 'EDG (II) 8x42'

    When looking for my new binoculars I knew that the Swarovison EL and this Nikon EDG were the ones to look at. I love the image provided by field flattener lenses and I knew I wanted a magnification of 8x. I didnt want Zeiss as I owned a pair of Victorys FL build in 2008 (with Lotutec). Of course...

    EDG (II) 8x42

    The best Nikon has to offer in sports optics. The best glass combined with field flattener lenses complete the perfect image, sharp from edge to edge. Very comfortable to look through and to look at. Bright, razorsharp, it looks like you step in the view. Very smooth focusknob, the image snaps...

    Already tested the best by Twentse Vogelwerkgroep I hadf the opportunity to buy a used one via a website. When I received it, it looked brand new. This head is easy to use and has the possibilities to adjust the mechanisms just as you wish: you can let it go up and down or from right to,left...

    This carbon fibre tripod of class A manufacturer Gitzo has three sections. With my height of 1.93 meters I do not have to pull the third section fully when I use it with my spotting scope (see review Kowa TSN 883) so the center column has never been used. A review of the Twentse Vogelwerkgroep...

    TSN-883

    This is Kowa's newest and biggest spottingscope introduces at the end of 2007 and widely available since 2008. read every review and you will see that it's a clear winner, at least even with the new Leica Apo Televid 82 and Swarovski ATM 80 HD although their zoom eye pieces have a wider field of...

    Review by 'kwikstaart' on item '7x42 T* FL / 8X42 T* FL / 10X42 T* FL'

    Recently I traded my Nikon HG L 10x2 for this Zeiss Victory FL 10x 2 (LoTutec): it's just a tad sharper, especially further away, brighter and clearer. The Nikon was very good but now I wanted the best: all colour shades are very clear. uptill now I believe this is the best you can get for a...

    Review by 'kwikstaart' on item 'HG L DCF/Premier LXL 10 x 42'

    After viewing through Swarovski, Leica and Zeiss I knew my next binoculars had to be topclass: it was such an great feeling to watch through such excellent optics! After searching the internet this Nikon came out as at least equal or a little better than Swarovski SLC/EL, Zeiss and Leica. Not...

    Review by 'kwikstaart' on item 'Fieldscope ED82A'

    After I started with a cheaper model I switched to a 5 year old secondhand Swaro ATS 65. But in dull weather (and in The NEtherlands it's more often dull than not) looking through an APO, HD, etc -scope, gave such fine extra''s I started looking for one myself. After looking through many scopes...
