This summer, whether you have a fortnight planned at an exotic nature reserve overseas or will be staying in the UK to enjoy all that our wildlife has to offer, SWAROVSKI OPTIK knows that the most precious moments are created when everyone can join in on the fun. With that in mind, the leading lenses specialists have put together a guide for families looking to purchase binoculars to enjoy this summer and beyond.
With this straightforward advice, encouraging the whole family to garner enthusiasm for nature will be as easy as 1-2-3.
Keep Impatient Eyes Steady On The Garden Or Meadow With The CL Companion, £850
High magnification levels may sound impressive, but models boasting these typically lead to shaky images in the hands of amateurs, which isn't particularly family-friendly. With the CL Companion 8x30 binoculars though, all abilities will feel very much at ease while twitching in the English countryside due to the clear and stable view provided by their lower power range. This model ensures that all ages, from younger children to grandparents, don't get frustrated or bored by wobbly images and, just as importantly, the broad objective lens will deliver the brightest picture, even when we have bid farewell to any summer sunshine and the skies turn grey and cloudy. A true companion for a Great British staycation!
Find The Action Fast With The EL 32, from £1,640
On safari, it's not always easy to keep up with the incredible speed at which events can change. So, when a gazelle appears out of nowhere and the pace of the afternoon is transformed, make sure that every member of the family can hone in on the excitement quickly with a pair of lenses boasting a large field of view. The EL 32 binoculars are therefore ideal for a group safari trip, with their generous 141-metre FOV. Make sure to pack them in your family suitcase before flying off to the game reserve this year!
Don't Get Weighed Down At A Sporting Event With The CL Pocket 8x25, £560
It's well-know that the smaller things in life must not be underestimated. The CL Pocket 8x25 lenses may look diminutive, however, their exceptionally compact nature and light composition makes them a real winner during a long day at the cricket pitch with everyone in tow. Not only can they be easily held due to their reliable grip surface, but the adjustable twist-in eyecups ensure that all faces, large and small, are accounted for and comfortable. What is more, this incredibly light pair of lenses can be carried around in a family back-pack all day without contributing to any grumbles and are easily held up from the arrival of the first batsman to the departure of the last.
The world belongs to those who can see beauty.
Experience the moment!
