Manufacturers sometimes get in their head that they gotta change something, anything, to extend the useful life of a product. Well, we bitched and yelled until they made the ALPINs they way they used to: armored but lightweight. If they look old-fashioned, so be it! They heft better and generally work better than the NG (New Generation) series. These are the best birding glasses made. They are the standard by which all other birding binox are measured. Their special, very stiff, alloy housing and lightweight rubber armor allows for incomparable ease of use. Oversized ocular lenses allow comfortable eye placement and no eyestrain, even after extended viewing. Crisp and sharp focusing is combined with a high-fidelity color transmission, that is the most accurate and natural of any binocular made. All models include Optolyths famous Cerulin-Plus multi-coating for unsurpassed resolution and brightness. Each unit comes with soft case and an ocular rainguard.
