CARL ZEISS 8X30 (West) classic They are in very good condition, they are fully functional, you could say they are new from the manufacturer of these binoculars, despite the fact that they are old and classic, and they are as good as binoculars. The 8X30 was the first model from a new Zeiss factory in the West - Oberkochen and was announced in 1954. It was produced along with its eastern brothers Deltrintem / Jenoptem and was sold for a double price. Is it worth it? My opinion is that it is not. For this price the view should have more neutral colours and it should be brighter than its cheaper and older rivals. Otherwise, this is a very good pair of binoculars. Simply disappears before your eyes. The view is very wide and sharp almost to the edge. Its optical construction allowed for short and very compact body, built to a very high standards. sold only in UK 🇬🇧
