Swift Warbler is the latest model in the Swift-family, a brand which has been sold from Naturbokhandeln for the last 30 years in Sweden.
The Japan-made 8x42 ED is a very fine and price-worthy pair of all round-binoculars, with a field of view that is good for the price range, with great ergonomic features and splendid brightness. In the new upgrade 2017, it was equipped with fluorite- crystal glass which is the ultimate for a low light dispersion, improving the optics performance in contrast and light, sharpness and color.
With a modern open-bridge design, the unit gets grip-friendly and feels lighter in the hand. It is of course filled with nitrogen gas to withstand dust, water and internal fogging, and equipped with eyecups that is easily turned to provide everyone the entire field of view, despite if one prefers to wear glasses or not. The dioptre-system of this model is cleverly placed integrated in the top of the centered focusing wheel – which you pull upwards to turn, and which locks safely when being pushed down again. A highly recommendable pair of binoculars, that truly delivers great optics in a sturdy, lightweight and nice format.
