Also been noted that this is one of the highest magnification of this series. Making it so eminent the user can find it serving when on move for the general observation and the sports enthusiast is again sure to compliment this product.</p>
<p><b>Exit pupil / Eye Relief</b>:</p>
<p>These are few other technical aspects of Alpen Pro 12&#215;25 Porro Prism Binocular where the exit pupil which performs the same function as the objective lens and is present in the center of the lens as a small circle. This measures 2.1mm in diameter. With respect to the eye relief it accounts to be 16mm which is one of the convenience factors for those under spectacle.</p>
<p><b>Handiness</b>:</p>
<p>True to the statement of compact structure it is mere 312 grams in weight. Not a huge model to carry around and the neck strap of standard type makes it easy to go about. Offered is the nylon carry case which is durable and also modish. The lifetime warranty is a promising aspect for this product.</p>
<p><b>Downside</b>:</p>
<p>This Binocular is not protected against the water and fog; hence it cannot be used in the extreme of weather conditions. Further it seems to be not adaptable with the tripod and hence hands free viewing is not possible.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Precisely, <b>Luger LD 8&#215;22 Compact Binocular</b> is capable of producing sharp images to the very edge of the focus. Luger the maker of quality optical products designs its products with care to technicals and design. With the head office being located in Germany it distributes to over 30 countries. The following is the review of this model.</p>
<p><b>Product overview</b>:</p>
<p>The harmony of the optical system and the viewing quality is been well defined in this device. Like many who depend on the optical devices for their activities like the hunters, sailors, hikers and many more. This Binocular is been a specialised segment made with the compact structure to support activities like Hiking, mountaineering, wildlife and bird watching. The brand Luger emphasizes its principles and makes it to be a more practical approach for the user to view large terrain and have a close up view of the selected object.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-965 aligncenter" title="Luger LD 8x22 Compact Binocular" src="http://www.binocularreviews.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/luger-ld-8x22-compact-binocular.jpg" alt="Luger LD 8x22 Compact Binocular" width="448" height="328" /></p>
<p><b>Physical Characteristics</b>:</p>
<p>If there could be an object that measures just 100 x 65 x 47 mm in dimension and weighs just 210 grams, then it is Luger LD 8&#215;22 Compact Binocular that is been reviewed here. Rightly stated as compact in structure with the grey colour body makes it all for the device. It comes with the <b>rubber armouring</b> protecting the interiors and with the focus system that is central makes it a noteworthy model.</p>
<p><b>Magnification</b>: 8x</p>
<p>Although not the one with the high magnification ability, it offers to view the object that is been enlarged 8 times of its original size. Definitely suitable for most of the activities and even in case of closer objects the better detailing can be observed. Serving the purpose rightly is this model.</p>
<p><b>Objective lens / Exit Pupil</b> : 22 mm / 2.7mm</p>
<p>The aperture is the objective lens diameter and it measures 22mm. This again is not a high in measurement. Made for the purpose obtaining light gathering ability, it is been designed to transform the light in the atmosphere to make the viewing object look brighter. Hence, it does not prove suitable for viewing in dim light conditions. Where as in the bright light it offers a remarkable performance. The <b>exit pupil measures 2.7mm</b>, it is the one present in the center of the objective lens. Its measurement is again directly proportionate to the brightness of the images under observation.</p>
<p><b>Focus and View</b>:</p>
<p>This <a href="http://www.binocularreviews.org.uk/compact-binoculars/" target="_self"><b>Compact Binocular</b></a> comes with the central focus system and the efficient dioptre adjustment that makes it easy for the user to bring the viewing object to focus. The field of view at the distance of 1000 m is 142 metres and the near focus is as close as 5 metres.</p>
<p><b>Miscellaneous</b>:</p>
<p>The eyecups belong to the fold down type and the lens are featured with full coating. The body is been rubber armoured yet it is not water proofed. Further, it does not support the tripod as it does not contain the tripod adapter fitting. The various accessories that comes inclusive with Luger LD 8&#215;22 Compact Binocular are the carrying strap and the pouch.</p>
