Review: For about $200, very impressed with visual clarity. As a beginner with no tripod, excellent and 8x42 the way to go for stable image. Have been able to pick out many more stars at night.
Review: Nicht so gute Verarbeitung wie Modell Athlon Neos . Objektiv Schutz hält nicht am Fernglas und Augenmuschel nur zweimal verstellbar . Optik nur minimal schärfer aber Lichtstrahlen empfindlicher als Modell Neos . Für den Mehrpreis erhält man aber ein leichteres Fernglas . Zu meiner Bewertung muss ich nachbessern: Habe mir ein zweites Fernglas schicken lassen und musste feststellen das dieses obwohl dass gleiche Modell nicht Lichtstrahlen empfindlich war . Und die Transmission viel besser als beim Modell Neos ist . Mit diesen bin ich jetzt zufrieden und warum diese Unterschiede waren weiß ich nicht.

Lornetka bardzo dobrze wykonana + akcesoria. Jedyny jej mankament to mniejsze nakładki silikonowe nie są przyłączone do lornetki. Bardzo dobra jakość obrazu, nawet przy zmierzchu. rozważałem różne produkty Nikona, Olympusa, jednak w przypadku tej stosunek ceny do jakości wypadł bardzo dobrze :)
