The details
At a glance: Swarovski EL 10x32 FieldPro - compact alpha binocular, SWAROVISION optics, approx. 595g.
About this binocular
The Swarovski EL 10x32 with FieldPro package is the compact member of the EL family - the same SWAROVISION optical system as the 42mm ELs (HD fluoride-containing glass and a field-flattener lens) in a lighter 32mm body. The FieldPro update brought a redesigned strap-connector and eyepiece-cover system, so the strap swivels freely and can be swapped without tools. EL bodies use Swarovski's wrap-around grip, which lets you hold and focus one-handed.

Best for
The 32mm EL is the one to choose when weight and bulk matter more than the last of the low-light performance - hill walking, travel and all-day carry. Against the EL 10x42 you lose some brightness at dusk but save roughly 200g. The field-flattener means detail stays sharp right to the edge of the image, which is what separates SWAROVISION from earlier EL generations.
Frequently asked questions
What does FieldPro change compared with an older EL?
The optics are unchanged - FieldPro is the carrying system. The strap connectors swivel so the binocular hangs flat and stops twisting, the eyepiece cover clips on rather than being threaded onto the strap, and both can be changed without tools.
Is 32mm bright enough for dawn and dusk?
For most birdwatching and general use, yes. A 10x32 gives a 3.2mm exit pupil against 4.2mm for a 10x42, so in the last light of the day the 42mm will look brighter. In daylight the difference is very hard to see.
Will it work with glasses?
Yes. Eye relief is around 20mm and the twist-up eyecups have intermediate stops, so you can set them to suit spectacles.
Why buy from Bass & Bligh
Bought from a real shop, not a warehouse.
Dispatched on the Monday… great service
Ordered a Panasonic four thirds lens dispatched on the Monday after purchase and delivered on the following Tuesday great service. Tried on the camera and initial thoughts are wow pin sharp and clear photos. Thank you
George P.Ordered a lens onlineA proper little treasure trove
3rd time I've been to this shop to treat myself to some new kit. Always very friendly and knowledgeable. Fairly priced too. I would highly recommend a visit if your nearby and looking for camera gear. I'd say if they don't have what your looking for, it's probably not possible to find anywhere. It's a proper little treasure trove.
Philip B.Third visit to the shopBrilliant advice with awesome customer service
Sure you can buy online and possibly save a few pounds.. but if you require and appreciate knowledge and brilliant advice with awesome customer service then it's a no brainer...This is a real camera shop like it used to be back int day..
