I am using my Conquest 10x42's for birding and am very happy with them in every way but one. The objective lens caps do not stay on, one would think a company like Zeiss would be able to figure out how to make a good lens protective system.

These binocs are amazing! Crystal clear, bright and lightweight! Zeiss never disappoints! In addition, they adjust small enough for my short pupillary distance. This is hard to find in this power. The moon and stars look really cool at night too!

I have moved up from a Minolta 10x25 to this binocular recently. First impression - it is well built, has a clear view and has the right balance of weight and magnification for birding all day. The strap and case are well designed.

Since I have so many floaters in my left eye and my vision is 20/30 corrected, I decided to buy a 10x42 binocular--Carl Zeiss Conquest HD. My Swarovski bins are 8.5x42 so it wasn't a big jump in magnification but it helps.

Very happy with my purchase. Sharp, bright optics, sturdy construction. Great warranty by Zeiss. Purchased these after doing online research for weeks. Now I see why these binoculars get such great reviews. Loved them so much, I bought the 8x42's as well.

I purchased these binos in July and took them to South Africa in August 2018. Ive also had an opportunity to use them in the mid-west.The 10x42 is the right magnification for both locations. I was concerned about the weight but it is a non issue.

The Zeiss Conquest HD are excellent quality and worth the price.

I wanted a new pair of binoculars to replace my ageing Pentax pair. My Pentax ones were 25 years old and were a huge improvement when I bought them on my previous pair. These Zeiss Conquest 10 x 42 are fantastically sharp over the whole field of view.

Crisp and clear. Excellent craftsmanship. Love these.

I would have liked to purchase what I had considered better quality but the price of the next level of binoculars was around $2,000 and I could not justify that. But these are very very good quality. The chromatic aberration is minimal and the clarity is very very good.
