Remarks:
Like its MeoPro siblings, the 10×42 features a relatively wide field of view (6.7 degree = 117m/1000) and exhibits a bright image with good central and very decent off-axis sharpness. The MeoPro binoculars may be among the last good middle class binoculars which are made in Europe or America (the MeoPro series, it appears, are assembled in the USA with parts produced in the Czech Republic).
