I picked up a pair today they are Tronic 8 x 50 with a zoom which brings it up to 24 x 50. They come with a bag. They seem nice enough but a bit heavy, for EUR20.00 you cant go wrong

Im interested in these too. Anyone get them, what are they like?

I dont fancy spending €20 on a paper weight.

I use both their (lidl's) 10x50 and 8~24x50 zoom binoculars, both are solid and
well made the glass in the 10x50 is multicoated but only normal coating in the
zoom type, makes not a great differance realy.
The 8~24x50 are sharp up to about 16x but start to get less sharp beyond that,..this happens with more expencive brands too so no worries there.

to finnish,.......buy a pair I'd say your getting a bargain

The 10x50 were in Lidl a month or two ago - they're made by Meade who are a reliable German lens makers. Rubberized casing and very clear image with little vignetting.
