Hikers, amateur ornithologists or zoo fans will get their money's worth with all five test candidates - even fifth place still has a "good" rating. For the sharpest optics in the test field, go for the Kowa SV II 8x32, closely followed by the Nikon Prostaff P7 8x30. If you prefer something more compact, the Vortex Diamondback HD 8x32 is also an all-round successful pair of binoculars.
This test report belongs to a different type: Ursus 8x + 10x (8x, 32 mm)
