Vote Highlights

Overall image quality is mediocre at the best. Although the FOV is wide, it comes at a heavy price of image distortion at the edge of the field (70%). The image is quite dim for a 7x binoculars. Also the image lacks of contrast and shows severe color aberration when viewing high contrasty object.

Could not bring left side into focus due to severe astigmatism in binocular optics; right side was better. Must be quality control problem. Eye relief very short to see entire field, and a bit uncomfortable, but wide view was impressive. Edges of field had very poor sharpness.

Although the image sharpness at the edge of the field leaves much to be desired, the absolutely HUGE field of view and excellent light tranmission (equal to good 8x40's) make these an interesting addition. They are excellent for beginners too, if they can't find it with these, they NEVER find it!禄震
