Solid Value! As a beginner birder, upgrading from the Nikon Action Extreme 8x bins, I first noticed a great improvement in weight.

I love them. Very comfortable and very easy to adjust. Very light in weight and compact. Would definitely buy again

Have a lot of binoculars for different purposes but for clarity and contrast these are in a class of their own. I now use these in preference to my bigger, heavier and theoretically superior binoculars.

Easy to use; Compact; Build quality

Battery life
