Digital camera reviews of Pentax 62216 Papilio 8.5x21 Porro Prism Binocular
Digital camera Review: A great aid to the close-up photographer
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the most useful devices I have purchased for aiding my close-up photography. I use it to scan a close up scene and pick out objects or features that I want to photograph. It works exactly as advertized. This means that it can be used to view objects from much closer than is possible with conventional binoculars. Of course, it also doubles as the latter, too. Strongly recommended.
