Swarovski NL Pure Binoculars?

[Jacob Chapman]

Looks like Swarovski is launching a new line of binoculars July 1st- NL Pure. Wonder what they've got up their sleeves?

Just saw that as well and came here to see what was up. Not sure what they are...but should be interesting. Wonder if it’s a replacement to SV swarovision and the double hinged EL’s?

Hard to say I guess, the NL's dont appear to have the double hinge. My next big purchase is going to be a pair of Swaro's, I have the Leica Ultravids but they are 8x32-good for treestand hunting. But I do want something with more magnification.

I'll be interested to see some reviews!

I just watched a webinar on them. They have 20% bigger FOV, better ergonomics, and have attachable headrest similar to the BTX. They come in 8,10 and 12x42s.

Don't quote me on this. The video kept freezing up on me, but I believe they said it has better glass and edge to edge quality than the ELs.

Hmm that's interesting. That webinar just for industry folks I imagine?

No news on a refined RF though..

That’s what I was hoping for! I hope it’s in the plans for 2021.

Yeah if they would make a RF bino for right handed archers thatd be awesome

Yep, using Zeiss Victory RF's right now, and they're great, I'm just a Swarovski guy

I'm in the same boat. Swaro usually gets it right the first time though.

Hard to imagine glass getting any better edge-to-edge than the current gen Swarovisions, damn. I thought maybe overall brightness, as Zeiss has always seemed to nail that one.

Couldn't agree more with that statement Ryan

My video quality was terrible when they were talking glass. They could have covered that.

I’m good with my ELs. Maybe when they come out with a 15 it will be enough better that I will give up my Duovids.

I like the warm tone swaro's have compared to Zeiss and Leica's. I wonder if turning up the brightness will make them look blueish like the other two.

12x42s with a FOV much wider than the current 10x42 EL?! Yowza.

 

[Cahunter805]

Another great option from Swarovski.

 

[Blockcaver]

Might be a bit lighter than SV ELs? I hope so.
