Minox

Definately the best binoculars I have owned, but I have always used inexpensive brands before these. In the two weeks I have owned them I have used them about six times bow hunting and they have performed well. I was hoping for a little more light gathering capabilities in fading light, but they still are better than anything I have previously hunted with. I listed the fact that these come without objective lens covers as a con. The positive was that I emailed Minox and they shipped me a pair of flip down covers for free. That's good service!

I love these binoculars......quality and built to last . They offer great clarity, are easy to handle ; not heavy ,or bulky . I am out of doors lots ,and these pack well. Whether I'm hiking beaches , or deep woods ; these are the glasses that are with me .

I've been using these for big mountain mule deer hunting. You will not confuse these for Swarovski or Zeiss binos, but they are a great value for the money. They have been clear, bright optics, and build quality seems to be very good. Even if I do decide a top shelf $1000+ pair of glass are in my future, I'll keep these as loaners or to keep in the truck. I used them to ID a muley at 230 yards with antlers much smaller than his ears to fill my tag with about 3 minutes of usable light left on the last day of the season. No way I'd have been able to take the shot without these (I run a fixed 4x scope). There's no substitute for clear, bright binoculars to spot and check out deer at 400+ yards.
