CL Curio 7x21The trusty Swarovski 8x30's I've had for the past 40 years combined with impeccable customer service have made me a loyal customer. They are compact with a decent field of view. However I am a very lightweight traveler and reluctant to take them on many trips and hikes. These new 7x21 curios are perfect. Much less size and weight, I hardly notice carrying them,. A little getting used to from the built in winged eyecups I've been used to, but noticably larger field of view as well as brilliant, sharp edge to edge optics. I will never be without them!
Great optical quality and pleasant focusing. My binoculars are light and exactly what I'd expect from a good optic for the great outdoors. I'll soon be getting a photo adapter for my laptop.
The device is - as expected - perfect. What is at least strange is that the glass is cheaper to buy everywhere than directly from Swarovski?
The CL Curio 7x21 binoculars are absolutely the best small compact binoculars i have ever used.
