Binoculars

How good are Swarovski binoculars?
What are these like compared to say your average 100-300 dollar binocular? does it make the colors more vivid or let me see crisp and clearer than my normal eyesight? I see around 20/20 maybe a little better but I have prescription glasses that let me see 20/12 (lowest the eye charts went) so I can have somewhat of an idea on how good the lenses are. I really obsess a lot over optics and big glass and always try to go all out so the price doesn’t bother me that much i just want to know if there’s much difference?

Hi Samuel -

It’s a fair question. We have both the EL with Swarovision and the SLC HD and they’ll knock the socks off just about anything they go against. I’d put them against not only $100-300, but against $1,000 and up binoculars and feel good about it. They’re worlds better than the $100-300 range and significantly better than the others, the way I see it.

The OpticsReviewer.com review for the EL with Swarovision (at http://www.opticsreviewer.com/swarovski-el-binoculars.html ) and the SLC HD (at http://www.opticsreviewer.com/swarovski-slc-hd.html ) are pretty spot on, in my opinion. (They’ll tell you the main difference between the two so I’ll not get into that here.)

I find the color to be stronger/more vibrant – but neutral as compared with silver-coated prisms which tend a bit toward yellows. The brightness is superb and will allow you to see significantly more in semi-dark lighting than you can without assistance. (Of course, they’re not night vision devices and aren’t intended to be.)

They resolve details much better than most binoculars – you’ll be able to see details more plainly with Swarovski glass than with most others. I believe that some of that is the HD glass and some of it is coatings.

Are they worth the money? If you have that kind of money to spend on binoculars, then yes, they’re worth every bit of it.

Many who have them will tell you to spend the money on them now and figure out how to fit them into the budget later – the idea is that you’ll not regret spending the resources on quality.

I wish you the best in choosing your next binocular, my friend -
