Viking OpticalViking Optical Ltd commenced trading over 20 years ago and has grown steadily to become one of the leading independent optical equipment importers in the UK. In addition to binoculars and telescopes, the company markets magnifiers, low vision aids, meteorological and surveying equipment.Viking Optical has a long history of co-operation with conservation bodies such as the RSPB and the Scottish Ornithologists Club as well as being one of the main sponsors of the British Bird Watching Fair held annually in August each year at Rutland Water. Much of the equipment featured in the following pages has been developed for watching wildlife but is equally suited for horse racing, aircraft spotting or general use. Viking & The RSPBThe RSPB has chosen Viking Optical Ltd as its sole supplier of optical equipment. Apart from the supply of a comprehensive range of optical equipment to our shops, this positive working relationship brings additional benefits to both the Society and its supporters: Optical Field Days to help visitors choose the best equipment for their needs. Binoculars and telescopes for use in field teaching programmes. Optical equipment to support Birdlife International programmes worldwide and Arent Birds Brilliant projects within the UK. Binoculars for hire by reserve visitors. Although the RSPB shops offer a full range of branded instruments from most of the major manufacturers, the Society is now able to offer its own range of equipment which has been produced over the past four years as a result of close co-operation between RSPB staff and Viking Optical. Although the instrument specifications were drawn up primarily for birdwatchers, they are all very versatile and can be used for most other purposes. |
