Very good for the money - Vortex Vanquish 10x26mm Porro Prism Compact Binoculars

Excellent value, fairly good light gathering, as clear as my Steiner Predator Pros, and better than them when looking into the sun. Not near as much halo as the Steiners. Wife keeps them in the boat at all times for wildlife watching, she likes them a lot considering how small they are. Plus, the lifetime VIP warranty can't be beat.
Pros: compact, clear, lightweight
Cons: None really for this price range
