My interest in binoculars and indeed in optics in general began whilst I was working as a safari guide (field guide) in South Africa, where as part of my job, I used bins almost every single day. The idea for this article came about from the frustration I felt whilst looking for a new pair for myself – It was really difficult to find any good information as well as unbiased and objective evaluations on the web about any of the models I was interested in.

A decent pair of binoculars can change the game for you, whether you’re just observing nature, tracking animals or hiking. As always, when I write articles about products I use, I know I’m only looking for the best.  And guess what – I found it.
