Great optics - Leupold Green Ring 10X50mm Wind River Olympic P1 Roof Camo Binoculars - 56315

Purchased the 10x50 Leupold Olympic bino's two years ago. As I use the bino's mostly for wildlife observation in the African bush at dawn and dusk, the large objective lens (50mm) performs well in the low light conditions. I am impressed with the clear, sharp and bright optical quality, the fast focusing ability and the light weight. Even eye fatigue is minimal after long periods of use.
If hand-held, I experience a slight shake/vibration at long distance. This must be attributed to my age and less steady hands, as the weight or seize of the bino's are not a factor.
The close focus distance is excellent and practical to observe smaller objects or wildlife (birds) from a hide.
I can only concur with the observations and remarks of other reviewers regarding the lens caps and in particular the objective covers. Not only is it annoying and a nuisance when out in the bush with photographic equipment, etc. but a concern that the lenses get dusty or scratched. Hope Leupold will address this issue in the near future. Although the bino's are manufactured in China, I have to date not experienced any mechanical/quality problems. With the life time warranty and Leupold's outstanding service and customer care record, possible problems should be dealt with satisfactory.
In conclusion – impressive optical quality and value for money. Take a serious look at Leupold's 10x50 Olympic bino's when considering to acquire new/additional optics – you'll be impressed.
