Pros and cons

According to our binoculars expert

  • You have a good overview thanks to the wide viewing angle of the viewer.
  • Easily focus with the large, central focus wheel.
  • The low weight takes your viewer easily with you.
  • The viewer is not gas-filled, allowing the lenses to fog in case of rain and temperature fluctuations.

Description

With the Konus Konusvue 8x40 wide-angle binoculars, you have a good overview. At a distance of 1000 meters you have a field of 143 meters wide in focus. This makes the viewer suitable for spotting birds and other animals. You have a good grip thanks to the rubber finish. Because of the low weight, you can easily take the viewer with you. Use the supplied carrying case or strap for this.

Perfect for the amateur

  • feels good in the hand
  • clear images by seeing
  • nice design
  • carrying string for around the neck difficult to fasten
I'm going on safari in 3 weeks and so I wanted a binoculars, but as I'm not a professional birder or anything like that I didn't want to buy one that was too expensive. This gives good images and is comfortable in the hand.

Ideal

  • Light weighing in hand
  • Fast delivery
  • Very sharp image
Bought for an elderly lady, to be able to watch her sheep from her house, because bandits stole her previous sheep. Considering its age, the device should not weigh heavily in the hand and provide sharp vision, which it certainly does. Ordered narrowly for New Years and as a miracle ended up under the Christmas tree in time ;-) Meets expectations
