Thanks for the comparison video! I hope you review Kite’s new APC 50 soon.

@BackwoodsPursuit 8 дней назад

Absolutely! We are actually testing them out right now. Thanks for watching!

@shem44 23 дня назад

SIG should implement button instead of flipping switch to change mode. Flip to turn on, push button to toggle between scan and target mode.

@BackwoodsPursuit 23 дня назад

Hey! Yeah, I think that would be a nice improvement I think. Thanks for watching!

@wildfoodoutdoors 2 месяца назад

thought my headphones died at the start but your voice audio is only set to the left channel 😅

@BackwoodsPursuit 2 месяца назад

Hey! Thanks for the heads up. I realized I had a technical issue after the video was published...ugh! It plays in both speakers/headphones if done on a computer, but sometimes not on a phone. Sorry!

@wildfoodoutdoors 2 месяца назад

@@BackwoodsPursuit no worries. I got so sick of it happening to me on my own videos I reset my timeline defaults to mono 🙈 surprisingly very few instances where I actually have stereo recordings.

@BackwoodsPursuit 2 месяца назад

@wildfoodoutdoors agreed! Yeah, I changed my mic settings etc to correct it LOL. So frustrating as it plays normally on my computer and in headphones on the computers, just not on headphones when on your phone.

I would love a review on the 50 mm objective Kite. It looks like it's just coming out now to a few stores. Interested if if the low light characteristics are much improved and if the IS is better as well. By any chance will you be reviewing this product?

@BackwoodsPursuit Месяц назад

Hey there! Actually, I am going to and have them on their way right now! Stay tuned!

@HogDogKrohn Месяц назад

Ty, I appreciate your reviews and in-depth analysis.

@BackwoodsPursuit Месяц назад

@HogDogKrohn glad to hear it and thanks for following the channel!

@francesco1945 Месяц назад

Hi best video! The Sig HDX 16X42 in scan mode, stabilizes like the Kite always about? Thank you

@BackwoodsPursuit Месяц назад

Thank you! Not sure what exactly you are asking? Thanks for watching!

@francesco1945 Месяц назад

if the stabilization in scan mode of the SIG HDX 16X42 is similar to that of the Kite 16X (which I tested) so as to understand. Thanks

@BackwoodsPursuit Месяц назад

@francesco1945 oh...gotcha. yeah, they are close I would say. I thought the Kite were slightly smoother scanning than the Sig, but very close. Thanks!

@redpillnibbler4423 3 месяца назад

Any with eye relief over 18mm?

@BackwoodsPursuit 3 месяца назад

Hey there! I believe the most any of them have is 17mm of eye relief. The specific eye relief of each is mentioned in the video though. Thanks for watching!

@redpillnibbler4423 3 месяца назад

@@BackwoodsPursuit Thanks for that.

@BackwoodsPursuit 3 месяца назад

@redpillnibbler4423 absolutely!

@EL_Toro1 3 месяца назад

What about prices comparison?

@BackwoodsPursuit 3 месяца назад

Hey there! They are pretty close in price overall, with the Sig being roughly $100-150 less across the board. Thanks for watching!

great review, thanks for sharing your experience with these binoculars, i have the canon 18x50,,12x36 v.3 and the 10x30 v.2 , i’ve been a backyard astronomer and birder over 40 years now, i’ve had some great telescopes and binoculars over that time, my question is on the objective lenses, i see they are not round and looks like they are flat where the two objective lenses, or closest to each other in the center of the binocular, i do know you still get a perfect circle just like the binoculars that have completely round lenses for the objective lenses, so does that make them smaller than the 42mm lenses that they are or does those flat spots on the lenses don’t make a difference ?? hopefully i explained it correctly, just never seen objective lenses with flat spots on the edges on the one side ?? thanks, ken. i’ve been using the 3 canons since 2018 with no problems and they are awesome.

@BackwoodsPursuit 3 месяца назад

@ken-ec9wv hey there! Yeah that makes sense. Like you said, the field of view is still round, but I'm not 100% sure how the lens size is measured with that flat spot in the center. Good question but I don't have an answer on that one. Sorry!

@ken-ec9wv 3 месяца назад

thanks, it’s interesting for sure, 👍

@BackwoodsPursuit 3 месяца назад

@ken-ec9wv might have to call Sig or Kite and and 😁
