    The performance is good as because it is so light you can take it anywhere and there is an old saying the best binocular is the one you have on you.

    The Sportur is very light indeed, very fair performance considering the time of manufacture and small glass optics. Nice to take on a hike.

    Dear Pheonix,

    Grazie per i vostri convenevoli, come dite voi molto graditi in questi tempi pericolosi. Vorrei mettere in guardia nel dare giudizi sulla politica poiché siamo tutti soggetti a false informazioni, il governo del mio paese è ben noto per i suoi rappresentanti poco veritieri. Auguro comunque a tutti un Natale davvero rilassante e che tutti i vostri regali siano benedetti da quel grande uomo che ha inventato lo strumento che ci piace tanto, Ignazio Porro.

    Thank you for your pleasantries, as you say very welcome in these dangerous times. I would caution when making judgements about politics as we are all subject to false information, the government of my country is well known for its less than truthful representatives. However, I wish everyone a really relaxing time over Christmas and may all your presents be blessed by that great man who invented the tool we like so much, Ignazio Porro.

    Buongiorno amici a tutti, visto ciò che ha detto Marco Ghirardi nel 2019, solo appena visto questo commento (i miei occhi devono essere stati molto peggio di quanto pensassi in quel momento LoL) posso confermare che il binocolo in questione è effettivamente il 6x32. Ciao per ora John




    Good morning friends one and all, seeing what Marco Ghirardi said in 2019, only just seen this comment (my eyes must have been very much worse than I thought at the time LoL) can confirm the binoculars in question are indeed the 6x32. Bye for now John

    Dear Carlo, One thing I have never felt on this site is animosity I have enjoyed every second and would like to thank all of you, I have during the last two weeks had my eyes opened having cataracts removed, worrying before the operation but now am realising just how much I have been missing over the last twenty years, colours are vivid, sharpness is astounding, everything is more interesting.
    Bye for now
    John

    I migliori auguri a te Ottaviano. Ho appena acquistato un perfetto esemplare dell'Hensoldt 8x32.


    Best wishes to you Octavian. I have just acquired a perfect example of the Hensoldt 8x32.

    Ne ho comprati un paio e li ho restituiti, forse avevo un campione scadente.

    Grazie per aver mostrato quanto sia meraviglioso salvare questi strumenti dai nostri antenati.



    Thank you for showing, how wonderful to save these instruments from our ancestors.

    By for now John
