Swafogski, my experience with SLC 8x30 WBs
Posted on April 25, 2009
Most people know the brand Swarovski, they make crystals, pretty perhaps but useless. Less widely known, the same Swarovski also manufacture high quality optics. My first decent pair of binoculars were Swarovski SLC 8x30 WBs. They are brilliant binoculars but I I've grown tired of sending them back to Austria for repair. The warranty is 30 years but so what if your binoculars fail in the field?
