Great Value on great binoculars

Submitted 15 years ago

By Big Cabin Dana

From Buhl, ID

Verified Buyer

Pros: Very good optics, Good brightness, Good field of view Cons: Lens covers fall off easy, Case does not have strap, Heavy Other thoughts: The build quality of these binoculars is excellent. The twist up eye cups are great and the eye relief is super. I like the brightness used in the daytime and the same at night. I felt that they were tad heavy however for birding and casual observing over more than a minute. Optics were what you would expect, clear, bright and very sharp. Exit pupil could have been a little bigger but that would have meant more length, weight etc. Over all the value in these binoculars is really great! I would remmomend them to anyone.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
