A modern update for the age old binocular

For centuries, man has used the simple mechanics of binocular lenses to view the heavens, for scouting (or spying) and simply to view distant objects. Galileo was the first to improve the invention of parallel telescopes only a year after they were developed. Many other inventions have played their part since – most notably the use of prisms to re-invert the picture so that it appeared the “right” way up. Another major breakthrough still in use today was developed in 1758 – when two lenses were cemented together, producing a color free lens. Ever since then, the simple binocular has been tweaked and improved – becoming ever more compact and lightweight – reflecting the advances in optics and new lighter weight materials.

Nowadays you can find a binocular to suit virtually every pursuit - both outdoors and indoors – from opera glasses to spectator binoculars, for hiking to bird watching to spotting wild animals and photographing nature. From those which fit into your pocket to those which can be mounted on a tripod to steady your focus, you’re bound to find one built just for what you need.

The age old binocular has met the challenge of our modern age and “gone digital” – that’s right, now you get even take digital images of whatever you’ve seen through your lenses. And of course, this lets you reproduce the image however you like – change the colors, enlarge or reduce, print, edit and even “post” it as you choose – so no longer will you have to say “you should have seen what happened when…. ” – you will be able to capture the instant that lets you relive the moment.
