About the event

Whether you’re a novice thinking of buying your first pair of binoculars or are an experienced wildlife watcher looking to upgrade, buying Optics can be a daunting prospect. With so many different options available, making sense of all the jargon and varying specifications can be a real challenge.

This event will give you the chance to speak to an expert, try a variety of models and find the optics that are perfect for you. Optics will be available to buy on the day, either through the visitor centre (if in stock) or via mail order. Better still, if you make a purchase, the profits will go straight to the Wildlife Trust BCN, helping us to help local wildlife.

Opticron is a long time supporter of the Wildlife Trust BCN and a sponsor of our photography competition.
