Product Review: All You Need To Know About The Swarovski CL Pocket Binoculars

Are you looking for a pair of compact, powerful and high-end roof prism binoculars that are suitable for all the family? Read on to find out more about the Swarovski CL pocket binoculars!

Compact Binoculars

The problem with compact binoculars is that a lot of the time they’re too small.  They’re not comfortable to hold in your hand, the eyecups are often too small, and everything’s just too close together for comfort.

It doesn’t have to be like that, however. The Swarvoski CL binoculars (learn more here!) are small enough to fit in your pocket or purse, but it also has a large enough bridge surface which makes it more comfortable to hold.

My, What Big Eyecups You Have

Just because these binoculars are compact doesn’t mean everything has to be tiny. Small, uncomfortable eyecups are a common complaint in compact binoculars, but the Swarovski 8x25 CL pocket model comes with big eyecups which will rest comfortable against your skin.

Kid-Friendly Binoculars

With an interpupillary distance ranging from 1.9 to 2.9 inches, these binoculars are suitable for children and adults no matter how close or far apart their eyes are.

Magnify Your World

The magnification number on your binoculars lets you know how much closer objects will appear through your lens. Binoculars with 8x magnification will bring your subjects 8x closer through the binoculars than they would appear with the naked eye.

While large magnification numbers are important for astronomy, anything over 10x magnification can be tricky because they will amplify your hand movements. If your hands are unsteady, the binoculars are likely to go out of focus.

The Swarvoski CL pocket binoculars have 8x magnification, which is ideal for most activities. Most hobbies that binoculars are used for, such as bird watching, wildlife observation, sports and theatre viewing and hunting, only need between 7 and 10x magnification.

See The World

Your binoculars field of view is measured in degrees and it shows you how wide your image will be through the eye pieces.

If you want to see a larger picture through your binoculars, for example if you’re observing wildlife or watching fast-moving subjects, then you’ll want a larger field of view.

The Swarvoski CL binoculars have a 52-degree apparent field of view and 6.8 degree real field of view, making them the ideal binoculars for most activities.

Relieve Those Eyes

Eye relief is very important for eyeglass wearers. The eye relief number on your binoculars refers to how far away your eye can be from the eyepiece before it stops being able to see the full image. People who wear glasses need that extra space to accommodate their specs.

The Swarvoski CL binoculars come with 1.7 cm eye relief, which should be able to accommodate most glasses.

Ergonomic Focus

A comfortable, user-friendly centre focus knob is a key component of any good pair of binoculars. You should be able to adjust the focus without any faffing about so you can spend your time focusing on your subjects.

The Swarovski CL binoculars come with a respective, ergonomic centre focus knob which will have you gazing at beautiful birds or the beautiful game with perfect clarity in no time.

No More Fog

The Swarviski CL pocket binoculars use nitrogen to stop fog ruining your view (and the lens) of your binoculars. The Swarovski 8x25 model is also dustproof, dirtproof and water resistant, which is just what you would expect from such a well-known binocular brand.
