BNISE 10x42 Binoculars - Visual Tour and hands on

I take a quick look at the Bnise 10x42 binoculars this set is available in black or camouflage as seen here Specifications: Item No.: BNISE-1106-Army Magnification: 10x Objective lens diameter: 42mm Prism Type: BaK-4 Roof Focus System: Center Field Angle: 5.6 Degrees 303-foot field of view at 1000 yards Exit Pupil: 4.1mm Exit Relief: 15mm Lens coating: Fully multi-coated Eyecups System: Rubber Pop-up Twist-up Close Focusing Distance: 16ft Dimensionsin: 5.9Lx2.3Wx4.9H Weight: 21.7oz Full text review: Rather than go for the standard black case finish I though I would try the camouflage look - thats partly down to black attracting heat in the summer hotter to hold in the hand I also wanted to see how these looked in person.
They look far nicer than the photos can illustrate its less saturated and more subtle than the photos show.
Design is similar though not quite the same as the Nikon Monarch 5 binoculars. Size is still compact for a set of binoculars at just under 14.5cm length.
Body is made from a thicker rubber material it gives a nice grip in the hands with some texturing on the sides - very comfortable to hold. Front caps are attached to each lens you can remove or rotate them as required.
The eyepiece covers are integrated into a single removable piece you can attach it to the strap if you wish..
Eye relief is adjustable by rotating each cover anti clockwise this increases the distance of the cup from the element.
Its also a softer material again a rubber feel so its not going to damage eye glasses if you wear them.
Despite the low profile I found them to be very good at blocking out unwanted light. On the right the dioptre adjustment its a smooth action but firm it wont change by accident adjust this first then the central focus wheel.
I found the minimum focus was about 3.8 metres a little better than the specification suggested. A quick note on binoculars with any design its a trade-off between magnification and brightness just like a camera lens or telescope.
The first number always indicates the magnification in this case 10x the second is the objective or lens diameter.
The larger the number the more light the lenses gather and the brighter the image At a higher magnification the the brightness will drop off thus require a bigger lens element.
If you have a set of 20x25 binoculars they would be much dimmer than a set of 20x50 but they would be far larger.
The second number often gets overlooked but its equally important for binoculars as the image brightness has a big impact on field use.
At 10x42 this set is quite bright relative to the magnification though lens coatings are also a factor.
They use a roof prism design which allows a more compact size though requires fine tolerances during manufacture. The strap is a neoprene type and feels quite comfortable to wear as it has some stretch to it and attaches to the side .
Case has some lighter padding and a Velcro fastening lid its not bad by any means but doesnt quite live up to the build of the binoculars.
I would have gone with a higher quality case for this set it detracts a little from the overall package. Front wheel can be removed though there isnt a tripod adapter included would have been nice to have one.
The binoculars have sealing against moisture and dust so this shouldnt cause any fogging or ingress issues. Optics As soon as I put these up to my eyes I could see instantly the lenses are first class on this set.
Multi coatings front and back the images are very sharp detailed and high resolution from centre to the edge.
Contrast is good and flare control was near flawless.
I also looked for signs of chromatic aberrations - this optical effect is quite common even on good lenses it can cause purplegreen fringing particularly in high contrast conditions such as sun on leaves around the edges.
Hard as I looked and I spent a while looking barely a hint of it even on the edges. I cant fault the lenses on this in any way.
No their not Leica class but theyre damn good of that there is no question.
The details and image clarity exceed the price level by some margin.
Its hard not to be impressed using these.
10x isnt super high power by any means but its a good general purpose magnification useful for bird watching or viewing scenery action from a distance.
If you got higher youll have to carry more weight around these are not super light but they dont burden you down either.
Lower light levels also benefit from the light gathering of the lenses much more so than smaller pocket sized binoculars say 10x25 ones The only area I would change is to re-work the carry case you also get a lens cloth included in the bag.
Other than that one point these are a great set of binoculars at a very competitive price level for the quality.
My score 8.910
