Brunton says: 

Our small, ergonomic, high-powered monoculars are the perfect item for anyone looking for a closer view. Impressive performance in a 7×18 monocular, with top-end BaK-4 prism glass & multi-coated optics. Bright, sharp image as close as 13 inches. 2.6 mm field of view. Whether you’re bird watching, hunting, star-gazing, or simply looking for a closer view – Brunton has the perfect monocular for you.

Our Verdict

The Echo is a  small and lightweight Monocular that easily fits into a pocket or rucksack hip belt. I wouldn’t class myself as a twitcher. Still, I do love spotting birds, especially birds of pray when I’m hiking, and watching a herd of dear sweeping across the glen will always take my breath away, so carrying a Monocular lets me feel much closer to nature without having to bring heavy equipment or bulky binoculars.
