Rating: Summary: Good but not great Review: I've had my binoculars for 5 days now, and I'm not all that impressed with them. Don't expect to be able to see anything when using more than about 25x magnification. I'm using my binoculars with a tripod, which is a MUST, but that doesn't help at all when the quality of the lenses don't seem to allow for focusing in the 25x or higher range. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any other binoculars out there with high magnification at a bareable price. If you can manage with the clear 16x-25x range, then they will probably be ok for you.
Rating: Summary: High Priced, but a great investment. Review: I've just pulled them out of the box, and they are incredibly powerfull. You have to get used to the way the zoom works, due to the fact that you can not easily proper focus the image. As soon as you do it, the image is impressive. The tripod adapter comes handy especially when you use them with full zoom. The binoculars are not heavy and you can manipulate them easily. They are high priced but its worth every single buck.
