Glossary | Binoculars | General | Series | Mistral
These binoculars are excellent value for money - especially suitable for bird watching!
The Mistral series of binoculars offer a very ergonomic, modern design with green rubber armouring and a housing made of a light but robust polycarbonate - and all for an impressively reasonable price!
All binoculars contain high-quality BaK-4 prisms. All models have a close focus of less than 3 metres. This is especially important for bird watching!
The premium models in the series feature an additional ED glass in the objective lenses. ED stands for extra-low dispersion, meaning minimal chromatic aberration. This suppresses colour fringing on bright objects and increases contrast.
In addition, the ED versions are equipped with phase-corrected prisms for higher light transmission.
