Vortex kaibab 15x56 - great product - Vortex Kaibab 15x56mm HD Binoculars VT-K15

I bought these binoculars because I could not afford a pair of Swarovskis and heard good things about the Vortex products. I have not been disappointed. Right off the bat I noticed I could get the barrels close enough for a perfect alignment with my eyes which I couldn't quite get with my brother's Swarovski SLCs. We also did an evening, disappearing light, side by side test on an object about 2-3 miles away and both of us agreed we could not really see any distinguishable difference between the two. The optics on these binoculars are excellent. Overall the binoculars are crisp, easy to use, and durable.

No one ever likes that moment when something happens and you need to send your prized item in for a repair but on one occasion I had bumped my tripod on a supper windy day and it was enough to knock it over with my binoculars on them. Unfortunately in landed on the eye cups and although I was able to finish out the day scouting they had to go in. With the VIP warranty they repaired the binoculars and had them back to me in a couple weeks with no charge and no questions asked. Great Service!

I would highly recommend these to anyone.
Pros: crisp clean FOV from edge to edge, excellent low light visibility, close ocular spacing, rubber coated, excellent VIP warranty
Cons: Can't say I've really found one yet. Some may say heavy but what 15x56s aren't?
