Gold star optics at a green ring price - Leupold Acadia Green Ring 10x42 Roof Prism Black Waterproof Binoculars

I have just recieved these fine binoculars and was immediately impressed by the optical quality of the lenses and prisms. Low light images are exceptional, as well as in sunlight. These binoculars compare favorably w/ Steiner, Leica or Nikon, at a considerably lower cost. My only complaints would be the retractable eye cups (which retract too easily) and the cheesy lense covers(these don't really fit). Overall- kudos for Luepold.
Pros: Clear, crisp, high contrast optics at an affordable price
Cons: The eye cups retract too easily
