Glossary | Binoculars | Area of application

The areas of application help you to choose the right binoculars for your purpose.

Maybe you take your binoculars with you for hiking, sailing or to the theatre. Take a stroll in the firmament across the Milky Way, identify birds at the feeder or spotting game while hunting - with the area of application you can limit the selection of binoculars for your particular purpose.

Within the areas of application, we evaluate binoculars according to the four classes "very good", "good", "medium" or "not recommended".
