Are compact binoculars any good?

Yes! Compact binoculars are similar to standard or full-size binoculars just with a much smaller objective lens. If size and weight are an issue, they are a perfectly acceptable compromise. They will not perform very well in low light conditions e.g. dawn and dusk due to the diminished light gathering capabilities.

What should I look for in compact binoculars?

Try various models before settling. Light transmission, colour and contrast all vary depending on the glass and glass coatings, often improving with higher-cost instruments. Decide on budget, size, weight and waterproofing beforehand, filter by these and then and compare to find your best fit. Delivery is free on all orders over £100, and free returns are available for all orders.

What is a good pair of compact binoculars?

What are the best compact binoculars for bird watching?
