Safari

Although you may understandably think the African light will be very bright, you need to bear in mind that many game drives are early morning and late evening (when most animals are more active) and therefore light levels may not be as high as you would imagine. In this situation a binocular with a large objective lens would be very useful. If weight considerations allow it, an 8x42 would be perfect. If you are limited in weight, consider an 8x25.

    These excellent binoculars with open-bridge design are fully waterproof and nitrogen filled to prevent fogging of the internal lens elements in cold, damp conditions. They would be a great choice for bird watching and nature viewing.

    Testimonials For Magnaloux

    I bought a pair of GL3 8x40 binoculars which are brilliant (I use them for wildlife observations mainly). Customer service was top notch and the binoculars arrived promptly so well done. Magnaloux appear to me to be the best product around for its clarity of view & cost – again well done.
