Visit to "de Verrekijkerspecialist" in Maarssen

I am going to perform a test of modern 10x50 binoculars for astronomy use. Last Friday I got the message that the binoculars were ready for pickup, so on Saturday we went for this beautiful shop.
Here is the table where each visit starts. Jan gives basic and in-depth information on binoculars, their construction and optics. There are many examples of binoculars that have been cut in half to show their interior.
Besides new optics there is a large collection of classic binoculars. Here is a set of classic Zeiss binoculars.
Here are binoculars "war production". All luxury has been omitted to enable quick and effective production.
Large binoculars for astronomical use.
Many classical binoculars.
Classic binoculars, there is even a compass.
My personal favorite: the Zeiss Dialyt.
Quality porro prims kit together.
Chinese roof-prism besides a well-coated quality roof-prism.
