Summary: GREAT Binoculars- why spend more?
Review: I did a lot of research before plunking down more than [money] for a pair of binoculars. After many side-by-side comparisons with the Zeiss, Leica and Swarovski instuments costing at least twice as much, I simply couldn't see enough of a difference to justify the added cost. If money is no object, the Swarovski's are probably the best of the best but they are certainly not twice as better as the Steiners! The Steiner Predator binoculars are perfect for use in the woods so they would a great choice for hunting and birdwatching. I've carried them for the past three years and have never been disappointed. I can also highly recommend the Pentax DCF WP binoculars which are less than the Steiners, very clear and rugged.

Summary: Delicious
Review: Steiner products have always been of very high quality and well worth the price. Wheather your spotting game or just fooling around they always prove to be very dependable. While I,ve just recently purchased this pair my grandfather has had his for 11 years, still in fine condition. The rubber coating is very durable. Highly recommended.
