Optics Test '08
This year's crop of scopes and binos features ED glass, ballistic reticles and compact brilliance.
![]() BRUNTON ETERNA 10x51
Price: $380 Contact: brunton.com With its big, light-hungry objective lenses, long eye relief and surprisingly good resolution, this entry from Brunton belongs around your neck if you do much low-light glassing. Given all its high-end features, the Eterna offers a lot of optic for $380. However, the binocular offers a disappointingly narrow field of view and revealed a bit of color fringing. Our test model had slits in the eyecups that allowed light to enter (Brunton insists this was an aberration). Still, we are happy to see high-end clarity and user-friendly features in what has been a lonely middle price range. TESTERS' COMMENTS: Armor has nice tacky feel; Big for my hands; Three-position eyecups score points.
