I was able to find these binoculars for about $90. They compared closely to the Nikon Monarchs, but are not quite as sharp. The ergonomics and feel of the Simmons is actually a little better than the Nikons. Overall, I am pleasantly surprised and the quality. The reasonable price means that I will not be afraid to take these any where or to loan them to even my brother in law.
Pros: ergonomics, lens caps
Cons: not phase corrected
