These bino's are rated as the best in class for low light viewing for a reason. With very low light conditions at night due to 1/8 moon that night or extremely clouded over sky. You won't find a bino more advanced for the natural light gathering abilities no matter the money. I've used all brands imaginable from high end Swarvoski,Leica,Zeiss, Bushnell, Minolta,Leopold, and Hawke. None compare to these Steiners. Especially when the high end bino's are 3 to 4 thousand dollars more. The size of them make finding a bino case extremely hard to find. But discovered a gentlemen who had the connections to get me a custom case made for a very reasonable price. I have had these bino's now over 4 yrs amd can take alot of abuse with no ill effect to looks or mechanical function of them. The no focus feature originally set on them is true to their statement. I would highly recommend these Binoculars and Steiner 10×42 since I also have a that bino too.
