I already own some hugely expensive Zeiss optics, but needed a second pait to throw in the car and etc. To be fair, having read reviews, I expected a well made pair of binos with a good enough image for most things, and got that, but a bit more.

I am a casual bird-watcher and have used the standard binocular on the basis that I would have to spend a lot more money to find the quality of image I am used to if I used the roof prism type.

Excellent binoculars - clear with good field of vision. Easy to use and not too heavy and they feel quite robust. Only small niggle is that the lens cap covers are fiddly to pop back into place.

After weeks of looking at reviews, magnifications etc I purchased this rather than a Opticron 8 x 32 which in itself had won a best small bino. award and had great reviews but was made of abs plastic. I remember a quote "pay as much as you can afford on binos".

These are outstanding for the price.

These are an outstanding per of binoculars, I would highly recommend them, if you want better then you better spend at least £500.

Bought as my first foray into binoculars. The specification is quite impressive but let down by quality issues. The label on the focus wheel came off after about two weeks and the rubber on the barrel has gone a bit bubbly although it was left on a window sill in direct sunlight once or twice.

Excellent recommendation

Bright image and lightweight.

Absolutely superb binoculars. Took them on a trip to the great lakes in Canada, made a world of difference to the whole experience, superb quality and crystal clear. You won't be disappointed
