Good glass, though not quite what I was looking for-
I’ve had a pair of Zeiss for quite a while (20 yrs. plus), and decided to give these a try following a car accident into a river where I lost the others. When I ordered these, I thought I was ordering the ELs. I should have realized I wasn’t by the price. However, they are nice and clear, with excellent resolution. Great glass. I changed because of the ergonomics and the chance to try something different- Of course, Zeiss may be better than that now, as well. I only have one problem with them. I REALLY wanted the EL series and now, with my income, I can’t afford to get another pair and I am stuck with lesser quality binos for another number of years, though these ARE excellent, just not what I thought I was ordering. Not Swarovski’s fault. I checked order history and I clearly ordered the wrong pair.

You wont be disappointed
I have always had cheap binos for birding and told myself one day I'll buy a pair that will be my last. These live up to every expectation. I was originally looking at zeiss and leica but they just didnt compare unless I went with thier $2600+ pairs. Worth every penny if you want to see birds like never before.
