Hunters, birders, and outdoor enthusiasts of all stripes will be impressed by the magnifying power, depth perception, and close focus of the Alpen Optics 10x36 Shasta Ridge Porro Binoculars. Many people prefer Porro prisms for their greater "3D effect" than roof prisms. The 10x magnification is at the top of the handheld range, pulling in distant details, and you can also mount the binoculars on a tripod for shake-free viewing. The 9.5' close focus is ideal for observing that nearby bird or butterfly. Antireflection multicoated lenses offer low glare and good contrast, and the twist-up eyecups are comfortable for eyeglasses wearers and non-wearers alike.
