Hi fellas,
Any experience with Kahles binoculars ? I’m looking for a good stalking binocular and found a nice Kahles 8x32...are they as good as their riflescopes ?

I have the 8x42s and have used the 8x32s, they are both outstanding. In my opinion, they are better glass than my Swaro 8x32 SLCs. I think they are absolutely as good as their scopes (I own 2 of their scopes, also).

Good luck.

I traded my 8x32s and bought a pair of Swaro 8x30 SLCs. I did a test with both and a pair of Pentax 8x43 SPs. The Kahles couldn't hold up to either. They were good, but just not as good as the others. Pentax makes the SPs in 8x32 also (FYI).

I have a pair of 10x42s, they are a little heavy. Also have Khales scopes. I agree with Cane Rat, both are excellent. I had a pair of smaller, can't remember the size, of 8x Swaro's. Sold them,because of the size. The optics were very similar, but the 42's were much better dawn and dark. I kept the Kahles as my primary working binos. I hardly use any other binos anymore.

Go for the Swarovski EL 8,5x42 (or 10x42) Swarovision - by far the best binos on the market - everybody who is looking through one of those can´t get his eyes from the binos...

So do I - this is more then the perfect bino!


life is too short for not having the best equipment You could buy...
