Les compactes : une classe à part. Les jumelles compactes représentent un choix intéressant pour qui souhaite réduire l'encombrement. Petites et légères, on n'hésite pas à les emmener dans toutes les excursions, que ce soit à pied, en vélo ou encore en kayak de mer [pour rapprocher les objets lointains].
