These are by far the best pair of binoculars I have ever owned. If you are looking for optics but can't imagine spending this kind of money, don't imagine just do it. Overall the fit and feel of these is great. The rubber coating is thick and uniform, the eyepieces are comfortable and optics themselves are breathtaking.

PROS
Superior Fully Multi-Coated and Phase Coated Optics
Compact Roof Prism Design
50mm objectives really make low light viewing easy
Quality Rubber Armor
Easy to use focus knob

CONS
Price
Cheap strap included
Objective lens covers are not high quality
A little on the heavy side for smaller individuals

CONCLUSION
If you are in the market for a 12x binocular these are really a great buy. While they may seem overly expensive compared to the sub-$100 models out there you are getting a unit that will come close to Zeiss and Leica in optics quality but at 1/5 the cost.

These are fantastic binoculars for the price. Very light and easy to stabilize for the 12x size. I very much recommend them, although they might be a bit heavy for bird watching.
