Anyone who hikes a lot will seriously believe that “unnecessary stuff in a backpack is your worst enemy”. There are things that are essential and that offer you unforgettable travel experiences. Hiking binoculars can be classified in both categories.

How to Choose an Ideal Pair of Binoculars for Hiking

Universal binoculars

One of the most popular hiking binoculars is Uscamel 10x42 HD Compact Binoculars. It is a model with a 10x magnification and an entrance pupil with a diameter of 42 mm, which is an ideal combination of magnification, amount of light, size and weight, especially for daytime observation. The binoculars are also waterproof and nitrogen-filled, so you don’t have to worry about the storm.

Binoculars for cycling or skiing

When it comes to cycling and skiing, every gram counts and we think carefully about sports equipment. Here we offer a solution with the Uscamel 8x21 Small Binoculars. These are binoculars for daytime observation with a magnification of 8x and an extremely compact design. The binoculars are waterproof and nitrogen-filled, and their biggest benefit is undoubtedly their weight. The binoculars weigh only 175g! Attention, there are of course all lenses made of optical glass, as well as BaK4 prism. No plastic!

Binoculars also for ornithology

The specialty among the binoculars are the models with variable magnification, so-called “zoom binoculars”. The Uscamel 7–20x40 Zoom Binoculars is undoubtedly one of the compact and suitable binoculars for hiking. These are also binoculars for daytime observation, but with an extremely large magnification range of 7–20x and the entrance pupil with a diameter of 40mm. The magnification can be changed at will depending on the character or the distance of the observed scene. To aid your viewing comfort, mount your binoculars on a tripod. This accessory is useful in bird-watching ornithology, or moongazing (when the sky is clear) for questioning.
