Remarks:

In summer of 2021, Maven brought a new binocular line to the market, the “B.6”, consisting of two models: 10×50 and 12×50. BINOCULARS TODAY acquired the 10×50, tested it (see review below) and is impressed: Performance of the B.6 10×50 is excellent, even more so if you take in to account its price.
