Zeiss Carl Terra ED Binoculars, 10x42, Green,Terra ED 10 x 42

For me it was an introduction to real binoculars for the first time. I’ve tried brands like tasco, Celestron(with good enough reviews and with similar specs); but was always intrigued by why the brands like Zeiss, Vortex , etc. cost so much more, so I did some research and settled on this one, as I had very good experience of Zeiss in my daily and professional use. What really interested me, is that, experts at this price called it worth every penny and the first look through these assured me they were right. Pros: Sturdy construction average (725g) weight nicely balanced easy to hold even with one hand. Excellent clarity and crisp colours (at par with Zeiss sfl 8x30) Very acceptable low light performance (at par with Zeiss sfl 8x30) I was fortunate to get hands on a Zeiss sfl 8x30 binoculars and found it performing very similarly during day and low light except for its exceptionally large field of view. Distant buildings with their lights were visible during night which were evading the naked eyes. An all rounder. I used it for watching the birds, watched the near full moon, watched a butterfly perched 10’ away and it was excellent every time. Accessories (carry pouch, strap) are all A grade. Yes, it’s made in China, but neither I see any compromise in quality nor I’m a racist so all is good with me. Cons: A somewhat restricted field of view still very usable for tracking moving objects. There are still better alternatives but not by far and all much costlier I conclude by saying, anyone will be hard pressed to find a better binocular at this price. I agree with the experts that it’s value for money despite being a bit expensive. ( the sample photos I’ve shared are clicked with both the binocular and the mobile camera handheld so pardon any vibrations. )

Used it for a safari trip. Great clarity. light weight. go for it

Terra Ed is one of the best and most expensive binocular i have got so far...But i would have to admit that it's worth the price... whether watching forest bird or sky the experience is really trippy.. Go for it if budget is not issue for you..

Kidney bechni padegi bhai....in order to buy this. But it's better durbeen . Visibility clear even in night , so go for it.

Looks sturdy, is easy to handle, compact and covers good distance - yet to use it in the nature though. Comped with strap and good box.

Zeiss unquestionably makes some of the best field optics in the world. The only thing great about these is the name, though. As these binocular are made in china.

I decided to upgrade from my Olympus 8-16 x 40 binoculars which I found to be a very good intro pair into a birdwatching hobby (price when purchased around £80). I was looking for better light gathering optics basically. The Zeiss optics are definitely a cut above and present a vivid image. I have yet to use them in very poor light. I opted for x10 magnification as that’s what I tended to use with the Olympus zoom function anyway. The Zeiss have a nice feel about them in the hands, a good touch to the focus ring and are lighter than my previous pair. As a mid range pair at just over £400, I think they are good value. The binoculars are made in China, not Germany, but I have no problem with that at all and my initial view is that the build quality and optical performance is exactly what I hoped I would get from the Zeiss brand. I haven’t noticed any colour fringing when using them so far and the image has been faithful and sharp. To my eye the field of view is more than adequate. The neck strap is very comfortable and the rubber lens caps fit well and are easily attached to the carrying straps. My only quibble is that the carrying case - sturdy enough with a zip running round three sides- looks like it should be mounted on a belt. I would have preferred a more conventional bag with a neck strap. The quibble is a minor one however and shouldn’t put anyone off.

Ich würde dem Otto-Normalbeobachter das 8x42 eher empfehlen, als 10x42. Natürlich kann man mit dem 10x42 mehr um 2 Längen mehr vergrößern, benötigt dafür aber auch eine geübte und ruhiger Hand. Dieses Fernglas war meine letzte Wahl, nachdem ich zahlreiche billigere Ferngläser ebenfalls bestellt hatte. Der Preis für das Zeiss ist halt echt fies. Habe alle anderen Ferngläser zurückgeschickt. Schärfe, Verabrbeitung und Funktionalität des Zeiss sind unschlagbar. Qualität: Die gestochene Schärfe und Lichtstärke ist brilliant. Wem allein das wichtig ist, kommt am Zeiss nicht vorbei. Verarbeitung: Dss was mir weniger wichtig. Doch die anderen Ferngläser waren mir zu viel recht spröde verabrbeitetes Gummi. Beim Zeiss sieht man den Preis. Sehr sauber! Funktion: Brennweiten von bis zu 3 Metern im Nahbereich, das ist schon erstaunlich. Zugegeben, das braucht man nicht. Aber Zeiss beweist, dass es geht.

Sono davvero soddisfatto di questo prodotto, è comodo e leggero, buona luminosità e bella l’impugnatura. Credo che sia tra i migliori anche rispetto al prezzo contenuto per un binocolo di buon livello. Lo consiglio vivamente.

Excellent, very clear bright view. For the money they are excellent value. Robust and their weight makes them feel like a quality product. It is difficult to believe they are not of a metal construction.

Das Glas an sich ist hervorragend. Die beiden Abdeckungen sind bedeutend weniger hinderlich, wenn sie nur einseitig rechts und links am Tragegurt befestigt werden. Der Köcher ist absolut unbrauchbar und hinderlich und kann nur am Gürtel getragen werden. Glas mit Tragegurt darin zu verstauen ist nicht möglich. Versucht man das, wenn der Köcher am Gürtel befestigt ist, läuft man Gefahr, sich zu verrenken.
