Perks
Alpen Optics offers binoculars with features including light-magnifying lenses, waterproofing and eye-strain relief. Binoculars are available in an assortment of sizes and powers, including compact models and those designed for far-spotting, ideal for birdwatchers and nature spotters.
Sacrifices
Partly due to their commitment to keeping costs down, Alpen Binoculars are not widely publicized or available. They cannot be found at big outdoor retailers, but only at specialty stores and online. This may make them difficult to obtain; buying binoculars online is not always the most reliable way to purchase them.
Bottom Line
Alpen Optics binoculars are worth seeking out. Their quality, price and warranty make for a great combination, even if they are not as available as some brands.
