    Cons: If I tried hard enough I'm sure I could think of something. Probably some chroma, but I must not be too aware of this, because I'm not really aware of it. Same with the 10x40 version.

    Pros: I could not resist the price. I know, these are discontinued, but so were my 8x32 Leica Trinovids. So. These Zeiss 8x30s are compared to the aforementioned Leicas, and I have to say, they measure up. They are slightly lighter, slightly longer, and just about the same optically, which is really the highest compliment I could pay.

    Summary: I would buy these again even if the price was higher. The fact that I got them at the ridiculous price I paid, thanks to B&H, is immaterial. I sold my Leicas to finance these and the 10x40 Zeiss version, and that is the highest compliment I could pay. No regrets. Too bad these have been discontinued. What was Zeiss thinking?
