Am pleasantly surprised and very pleased with the glass

First of all: the Pentax-glass glass for stand hunting in the twilight in the forest course is not etc. this claim it raises but also not. My approach was a simple glass, compact and handy for the 'always with you'. For other purposes, I have an excellent Steiner and a Leitz glass that you can not compare, of course. The Pentax is ideal for as I said 'always there', air show, Zoo, river trip or on holiday when there is a danger that it sometimes 'legs' gets.

So the glass as always came promptly from Amazon, sensibly packed, with belt, eyepiece, bag and instructions. First surprise, quality workmanship, good feel, nothing rattles, nothing is too light or too tight, the weight provides security while keeping, not too light, but not too heavy and the frosted housing does not slip.
The Okularaufsätze are unscrewed and snap cleanly into 3 positions, eyeglass wearers to leave them alone position. The unique diopter adjustment (left eye, focusing, right eye, balancing etc ....) via a retractable knob, which is great because not inadvertently adjusted.

The dial is pleasant, not too heavy or light running, the sharpness is good, brightness well, always in accordance with the overall data information of the glass, of a 8-16x21 is of course never a night glass and 21s exit the field of view is also limited, the white but you beforehand.

I have voted for the first time in my life a glass with Zoom, actually a basic sin with good binoculars, but in this 'free time glass' a nice treat, 16x can barely keep painted or hung up anyway. There are these glasses so well to 30-times magnification, the I can, however, hard to imagine, as one might hardly find the target. But here: sightings with 8-fold and then pivot the easily accessible knob times to 16 times, that works well.

Prima detail: a tripod socket in the bottom of the glass, for example for a monopod or a shooting stick with thread, practically.

I am very pleased with the features and the design of the glass for the purpose described above and therefore forgive 5 star and a buy recommendation. I've got it anyway always there when I'm traveling and have none of the glasses while hunting.
