Oberwerk 15x70mm binoculars - Oberwerk 15x70mm Binoculars

These are my favorite grab'n go instrument. The view along the terminator of a 3/4 moon showed remarkably little color, focus was sharp and collimation nearly perfect; the interocular adjustment is stiff though. One eyepiece broke off of my first pair and the brass tripod socket is IMHO not robust enough. The coatings are first rate, and the bino feels good to hold, but I can't hold it long; a mount is required for binos this big. Handle with care and these will serve you well.
Pros: great value, light weight (for its size), very good optics
Cons: not as sturdy as it looks
