Wow for a decent price - Leupold BX-4 McKinley HD 8X42mm Roof Prism Binoculars, Black

Purchased after years of wanting Leupold GR, was extremely impressed out of the box. Focus knob a bit stiff at first. It feels solid as a rock, and is a bit heavy on the neck but doesn't stay there much and is great balance in the hand. Diopter doesn't lock but is very firm once set. I was shocked at the performance for the price. I almost went with some "alpha" optics and this saved me enough money to get a new "alpha" camera lens!
Pros: Great Feel, Excellent Optics, 3D view
Cons: Would love an 8X32 version
