At $28.00 these binoculars were a super buy. They really pull things in close. Just as good as a more expensive pair. Amazon,s shipping was also super


Very good for amateur use

by Gerardino Jose Illescas Alvarado from Guatemala City on 2010-08-10
I am an amateur astronomer and this binoculars get the job done letting you make a non deep observation of the sky at night. It's pretty easy to focus on this ones (and easy to get them out of focus).They include the binoculars (obviously) with their protective caps, a not very soft cleaning cloth, a string for hang them and a bag for carrying.The only complain I have is that after a while they feel slightly heavy, but could be because I point them up to the sky in a tiring manner.

This product is very good for what I ordered it for. I needed it to look at targets on the firing range after making my shots to see where my hits were going.

Great Binoculars for the Price

by Choosy Beggar from Colorado Springs, CO on 2009-03-21
Alpen isn't one of the big names, but they make a great product for a reasonable price. I bought a pair for elk hunting and backpacking and they worked flawlessly. The only person who ever spotted game faster than me was a nauseated guy trying to use an old pair of 20x binoculars without a tripod! He must've gotten lucky...The image is bright, crisp and clear, and the twist-down eyecups accommodate my glasses very well. The focus knobs stay put, even after a long day on the trail. My only complaint is that the lens covers didn't always stay put, but overall it was a minor complaint. Forget those micro-mini binoculars for hunting, hiking and backpacking - these are great, and don't weight much at all!

Description

Includes Swarovski 2x Doubler Eyepiece.

Enjoy twice the magnification through your Swarovski binoculars with this 2x doubler eyepiece. Designed for all EL 32 and SLC binoculars (excepting the 8x30 WB), the doubler works simply: just unscrew one of the two twist-in eyecups and screw on the booster. Once attached, the doubler converts your binocular into a monocular telescope with a more powerful optic. For example, the doubler will convert an SLC 15x56 binocular into a monocular telescope with 30x magnification. The 2x doubler turns your Swarovski binocular into a monocular telescope with twice the magnification.The 2x doubler is an ideal choice for people who occasionally need an observation boost while birdwatching or attending sporting events. The device fits the following Swarovski binocular models: SLC 56, EL 32, SLC 50, and SLC 42. About Swarovski Optik Although founded in 1949, Swarovski Optik's roots actually trace all the way back to 1895, when Austrian Daniel Swarovski--who invented the world's first electric grinding machine for jewelry stones--established the family-owned Swarovski Crystal in the province of Tyrol. Since then, the name Swarovski has become synonymous worldwide with the clearest crystal, precision grinding, and a brilliant spirit of innovation, as the original enterprise continued branching out into additional lines of business. Swarovski Optik owes its rise to Wilhelm Swarovski, son of the original founder and an avid hobby astronomer, who decided to build his own improved binocular in 1935 at a mere 17 years of age. With access to the specialized glass production and finishing technologies already used to manufacture jewelry stones in his father's factory, Wilhelm managed to develop a novel prism fabrication and grinding process that he applied in constructing his first 6x30 binocular. Wilhelm went on to found Swarovski Optik KG in Absam, Tyrol, in 1949, thus laying the foundation for a sports optics company with a global reputation. His company's first serial product, the Habicht 7x42, is still an industry standard in the field of hunting optics and continues to be produced in the best tradition of its founder.

Features

  • 2x doubler designed for select Swarovski SLC and EL binoculars
  • Delivers twice the magnification of binocular's initial lenses
  • Attaches to eyecup after twist-in piece is removed
  • Turns binocular into powerful monocular telescope
  • Fits Swarovski SLC 56, EL 32, SLC 50, and SLC 42 models
