Cons: Objective lens caps too easily come off. Extension of eye caps needs to be just a little more for use without glasses.
Pros: Well built and very clear across the field of view in all light. Brilliant full field of view when used with glasses.
Summary: I have found these are as good as much more expensive binoculars at a fraction of the price.

User profile: Semipro
Cons: Lower than expected centre field sharpness, 'wash-out' colour rendition in falling light is disheartening, very poor objective lens covers which are easily the worst of any on the market, overpriced if bought as new in the UK with falling resale values a good indicator to this.
Pros: Well built and very well balanced, fairly good view across most of the wide field, well supported warranty.
Summary: One to buy pre-owned. Several other better choices if buying new in a very competitive mid-market.
