Cons: Bit heavy and probably not your walking around glass. But designed from original USN military specifications for robustness. Fujinon had the USN binocular contract for years and the glasses are still in use in the fleet.
Pros: Field of view, rugged design and resolution. The weight adds stability needed at 10x. The modern issue has rubberized extremes for damage protection.
Summary: You need to go far and wide to find a better glass and of course, sink many more dollars into your purchase with a minimum of payback

Cons: 1. Slight yellowish cast 2. Slight vertical divergence in my pair
Pros: As told by other reviewers.
Summary: My model is FMTR-SX, purchased around 2009. I am a little bit disappointed. First off, although it is solidly built, I can detect slight vertical divergence. But the biggest problem to me is the color rendition is not neutral. Compared to Leica 10x50 BR a yellow cast is noticeable. 7x50 also has the same problem. It is brighter and better edge corrected than Leica but I prefer the latter one for viewing coz the image is cleaner.

Cons: These are a bit heavy binoculars for astro observations. I needed a tripod to mount them. For terrestrial observations they are fine handheld. For people with big noses it may be a tight squeze between eyepiece barrels, try first.
Pros: Excellent optical performance, no problems that i could notice. I primarily use it for astronomy. Solid made and very durable. Perfect collimation, sharp to the edge, no CA, generous Eye relief and i am sensitive to this problems.
Summary: A top instrument in every respect. But can become heavy after long observation sessions. Recommended.
