I'll start off by saying that I don't know anything about binoculars. I picked these up to have a basic pair of binoculars for viewing out of a downtown office window and an upcoming trip to Italy. Who knows, I may even take them on a hike or something. Anyway, I must say that these are nice little binos.

pros:
1) Solid construction. All adjustments have a firm resistance and even though it has a plastic body it seems like it could handle a few drops. 2) Really lightweight and small. That's where the plastic body pays off I guess. 3) Excellent image quality. Most surprising to me was how sharp the detail is through the lenses. I guess I am focusing more precisely on top of my prescription contacts for perfect vision which is pretty nifty. 4) Comes with a fancy little case so you can throw it in your bag without worrying about scratches etc.

cons:
1) None at the moment. All I can say is that body of the binoculars is more of a champagne color than silver as indicated in the picture.
