  • You can't go wrong!
Size: 8.5x42
You are possibly asking yourself, "are these worth the money?" "Are they really *that* much better than my current binocular?" I have used these literally every day since purchasing them, and not a single time have I questioned or regretted it. The image couldn't be any clearer (without me having to upgrade my eyesight) and the "field flattening" effect to me is very nice, not much refocusing is required to track a subject. They feel great in the hand, not too heavy, easy to focus and adjust the diopter. I'm not crazy about the proprietary strap mounting system, and the objective lens covers broke off, but after nearly a year of daily use. And you will have to supply your own hard case, they only provide a cloth bag. However you cannot go wrong with any "alpha" glass, and this product is clearly (pun intended) in that category. If you can afford them (or, as I did, convince yourself that you can) buy them! ... show more

  • At last, I can bird without shame
Size: 8.5x42
I have been lusting after a pair of these forever. As all birders will tell you, when you meet a fellow birder, they will look down at your torso and not at your face. Yes, we all judge each other on our bins and you are lying if you claim you don't. Now, with my classic Swarovskis, I can bird without shame. They are also amazing bins, of course. They are incredibly sharp and bright. No "irritating" rings or outlines to be found (as the very German manual describes it). The focus mechanism is smooth and your settings stay in place. They are so so much better than my old Nikon Monarchs, although I couldn't tell you how these fare against other expensive bins. However, as practically every guide and serious birder has these hanging from their neck, it's hard to imagine how you could go wrong. They are heavy so you will want a proper harness vs. the neck strap. Also, they don't come with a protective carrying case, which I found super odd considering how much they cost. Swarovskis sell cases for like $100 which is obscene so I ended up buying a case (Ekeskey 50mm) on Amazon for $15 which is perfect for protection if you tend to just toss your bins into your backpack as I do. ... show more

  • Excellent Quality and Clarity
Size: 10x42
My husband and I have been birding for decades so decided to gift each other these binoculars for our 50th wedding anniversary. The optical quality, clarity and focus are excellent. Have to point out that all other binoculars we’ve purchased over the years, several times less expensive than these, came with a carrying case made for them. The “Field Bag” provided is simply a drawstring bag, offering very little in the way of protection for these valuable optics. We will be ordering cases as soon as possible. ... show more

  • Great Binoculars
Size: 10x42
I bought these Binoculars for my wife who is an amateur photographer and bird watcher. We had friends who owned them. One was a retired game warden and the other an avid hunter with the range finder edition. She picked up the game wardens and was so impressed I pretty much knew she needed a pair. I asked him how long he had owned them and he said 15 years. I know these are expensive but there is no doubt in my mind that these are the finest binoculars made and will last a life time. If you can see your way to buy a pair you won't be disappointed. ... show more

  • THE BEST Binoculars I have ever looked through!
Size: 8.5x42
I bought these binoculars as a present for my wife. We are avid outdoors people, birders and hunters and appreciate the clarity, functionality, and quality of these top shelf binoculars. The engineers at Swarovski though of everything in designing and producing these binoculars. Everything is smooth and tight from the eyepiece adjustments to the focus nob to the hinge. The carry strap system is highly engineered, but simple and secure. And the ergonomics are exceptional. My wife absolutely overs them and we are looking forward to using them on future birding adventures. They are expensive, but worth every penny! ... show more

  • Everything they're cracked up to be
Size: 8.5x42
Got these for my wife to try bird watching where details matter and I was skeptical but they are unreal. You can see such detail that my $500 Zeiss hunting binos did not deliver. I went 8x as a good all around option with good field of view, light and not shaky - figuring these are lifetime binos and want them to be useful when we're old and less steady. They're a great option if you can justify the extremly high cost. ... show more
