Hi Folks.

Just been and got my July sky charts from 'Skymaps' (thanks for the pointer DT).

I noticed they have a selling section,and saw these 25 by 100 Binoculars

By Zhumell,I have never heard of this name before,these Binoculars looked big,anyone here got them?what are they like? I imagine there made in China,with a name stuck on,I may be wrong.So if anyone has a
Zhumell product,I'd like to here how well it works in the field.

cheers Chris

Zhumell telescopes in the USA are rebadged GSOs? Sorry that doesn't answer the question since, as far as I know, GSO does not make binoculars, but it might give a lead.

OK, I searched them out:-

chris..some users of N bino forum have had less than good experience with zhumell...they are basically the same binos as andrews sells - though a few do differ in specs/quality..one of the CN members likes to call them ZhuSmell, they are binos provided to a certain price point...if you get them make sure collimation has been checked before they send them..and they are thoroughly inspected
