Oberwerk 20x80 Standard Binoculars
The giant 80mm objectives gather a great deal of light (30% more than 70mm objectives), yet contrast is excellent. Includes the finest BAK4 prisms and is fully broadband multi-coated. It has a long 18mm eye relief (unusual for such a high-magnification binocular), so it can be used by those who wear glasses. Lightweight rubber-armored 15-inch-long body. Also includes right ocular diopter adjustment, soft rubber ocular and objective covers, and a carrying case.
Seeing color accurately is integral to sky-viewing experiences, and the Standard addresses color brilliantly. The 20x80 Standard has excellent color correction and edge-of-field sharpness due to its relatively long focal length. It offers extraordinary astronomical viewing, and is also a great choice for long-range terrestrial observation - especially when viewing under low-light conditions.

Really well made binoculars. Bought a pair for star gazing great images.
You really can't fault Oberwerk's giant binoculars the images are clear and crisp and the big objectives give very bright images. I've used more expensive binoculars in the past but these are easily just as good at a much better price.
Steer clear of these unless you are on a tight budget. I found the craftsmanship of these a little on the shoddy side. The focus knob on the bridge is too loose and the bridge doesn't seem stable. The optics themselves aren't too bad but there is noticeable blurry edges to the images that are not as sharp as the center. I wouldn't recommend these to any one.
