  • Excellent Optics
    By MiguelVerified PurchaserVerified Reviewer from Near Seattle on 04/11/2008
    Pros:
    Close Focus, Compact, Quality Lenses, Strong Construction
    Cons:
    no attached lens caps, Objective cover poor
    Best Uses:
    Bird Watching, Hiking
    Describe Yourself:
    Casual/ Recreational
    Bottom Line:
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
    This is a great value in very fine quality compact binoculars. The imaging is very three dimensional and the bokeh (background out-of-focus area) is rendered nicely. Light weight for hiking. Good contrast, nicer than Nikons that compete. Problems: the neck strap has a strange proprietary fitting and the lens caps are second rate, not befitting a better grade of binocular. Otherwise I would have given this product 5 stars.

    Overall, a good quality lightweight and compact binocular. Strap attachment is a weak spot - duficult to attach strap and very hard to remove. Won't accept standard carry straps and clips on strap provided are very weak.

  • Fun "Toy" for serious birdwatchers
    By DOPPLERVerified PurchaserVerified Reviewer from Bel Air, Maryland on 03/05/2008
    Pros:
    Close Focus, Compact, Quality Lenses, Strong Construction
    Cons:
    Eye caps attached, Not for eyeglasses
    Best Uses:
    Bird Watching, Concerts, Live theater
    Describe Yourself:
    Casual/ Recreational
    Bottom Line:
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
    Had the Safari model, but struggled with short eye relief. Exchanged; upgraded to the Merlin; quantum leap! More money, but worth it. Quick easy focus wheel; adjustable diopter. Curved eyecups might not work for eyeglass wearers. The eye cup covers are perm. attached to strap. Wish they were notched on both sides so I could remove it when I choose. Aside from that, I LOVE THESE BINOCULARS!

  • Best buy in a truly compact binocular.
    By The HawkVerified Reviewer from Mohnton, PA on 01/03/2008

    Close Focus, Compact, Gathers light well, Quality Lenses, Strong Construction
    Best Uses:
    Bird Watching, Hiking, Hunting in wooded areas
    Describe Yourself:

    I have used these binoculars while deer hunting with my flint lock muzzle loader. The terrain was thick with saplings. These binoculars enabled me to search the thickets for bedded deer. They were light and bright, even on cloudy days. They are a pleasure to carry while hiking.their resolution is good and they are easy and quick to focus.

  • Big surprise in a small package
    By TravelerVerified Reviewer from New Jersey on 12/03/2007

    Cons:

    I have 8x30 binoculars that weigh 22 oz. and I wanted something light for hiking in Alaska for next year. I did a lot of research and came up with Steiner for excellent price (I got them [...] at a very big discount). I was really surprise how good fully coated multicoated lenses are. I did side-by-side comparison of my larger old ones and the new 8x24 - new pair won hands down. And they are so small you can put in your shirt pocket.
