Great value (quality at price)

I have owned many binoculars, from low-end no-names to Zeiss. This is hands-down the best value binocular I have used. The image is amazingly bright in low-light (e.g. dusk) applications, and clear/sharp/aberration-free in all situations in which I have used it. I bought it because, when I tried it at the shop, it seemed deserve the level of praise I had read about it on the "'net". Taking it home, and putting it through the informal tests that I use for making my own judgements about such things,I found them to be everything they were touted to be and more.
I have read reviews that indicate that they do not handle rough use as well as might be desired. Having owned mine for about one and one-half years, I can testify that they stand up well to normal use. There has been no deterioration in the quality of the images they provide over that period of time.
In summary, I would, without reservation, recommend this binocular to anyone who is looking for a clear, bright, sharp image. I cannot understand the need to go to a (much) higher-priced item, when this delivers the goods as well as it does.
