| Description: | It's possible that the Garrett Optical Gemini Lightweight binoculars represent the best value around in high-performance giant binoculars. The 15x70 LW model comes packed with features normally found on binoculars costing anywhere from 50% more to several times as much, such as Fully Broadband Multi-Coated optics and barium crown (BAK4) prisms. Rubber armor, long 18mm eye relief and wide-angle, 66-degree apparent field-of-view eyepieces only adds to the appeal. A specially-designed slow-focuser allows the precise adjustments necessary to achieve maximum performance. Each binocular is carefully hand-tested before it reaches your doorstep. Collimation, if necessary, is performed by binocular expert Cory Suddarth of Suddarth Optical Repair. Collimation is user-adjustable, in case the binoculars are knocked out of alignment. Each binocular comes with a protective hard carrying case and Garrett Opticals two-year warranty. This 15x70 model is an excellent all-around binocular that can be hand-held for short periods of time, though a light tripod or lawn chair is definitely recommended for extended observing sessions. Many people feel like a 15x70 represents the best value for the money of any giant binocular, and the Gemini 15x70LW is certainly a bargain. True field of view is 4.3° and weight is just 3 lbs., 1.5 oz. |
