Really surprised that the scope doesn't perform well... i end up not using it. my nikon monarch 8x42 binoculars (made in china :-( ) seem to have better optics than these. i needed a higher power binocular so i went with Zeiss 10x42 and hands down, they are the best... i might try to sell the swarovski scope and try a zeiss scope.
Pros: heavy duty
Cons: price for performance
