    The near focus on these glasses makes them great for birdwatching. They have a good weight, not too heavy, and they come with a nice thick neckstrap so you can wear them for extended periods. Good price for such high quality, a wonderful pair of glasses.

  • Captain Terry

    These are a real nice compact pair of binoculars This is the first pair of roof prisms I've bought and although they do seem a bit darker than my old porro pair on the whole they have a pretty good image. Picked these up at a pretty good price but no replacement for my old binoculars. Use them mainly for when I don't want to drag the heavy clunkers around with me. Still they work well enough but I find them to be great in low-light.

  • Graham Norris

    I picked up a pair of these at a show, unbeatable price for some serious high performance binoculars. This is the first pair of 8X binoculars I've had for hunting so I needed something with quality optics and a decent field depth. Awesome quality, just a great buy.
