Very good compromise binoculars for night and day hunters for both deer and bird hunting 4.5 / 5 stars. The image quality is amazingly good, photographic. For the night hunter, the binoculars are a compromise because with 42mm front lenses, night vision is not as good as with 8x56 binoculars of the same Price Class during black earth. In snowy weather at dusk, you can see enough 8x22mm daytime binoculars. Binoculars are more versatile and compact than, for example, the Steiner Nighthunter. The practical experience of night vision can be summed up as follows: When viewed with both eyes, you can see in the dark as well with this binoculars as I did with the Zeiss Victory Diavari 2.5-12x56 tube (black earth time).
If you are considering buying binoculars and wearing glasses buy this. The binoculars can be used to adjust the viewing distance to the eyepieces as well as to those who wear glasses or can do without. The binoculars do not have side flaps that annoy the wearers of the glasses, as in Steiner's Nighthunter, for example. The lens covers are really good, as is the storage bag is high quality and of sufficient size. The binoculars have manual focus with a good focus wheel. On the whole, you will notice the excellent quality as soon as you grab the binoculars, both externally and in terms of optics.
The rangefinder works well. The feature is undoubtedly good for birders or hunters in large openings, but completely useless in watch hunting when the distance between feeding and shooting range is known in advance.
For night use on black earth alone, you may want to buy an 8x56mm binoculars without a rangefinder. If the range is wider or you use these in snowy ground, these are a great choice.
