Zeiss conquest hd 15x56 - Zeiss Conquest HD 15x56mm Schmidt-Pechan Prism Waterproof Binoculars

I did lots of comparison shopping for new binoculars. By far the best reviews for the roof prism were for Zeiss. At the price point of almost $2k I wanted to be sure I was spending wisely and still getting quality. Just received the binoculars. I was not disappointed. These are of exceptional quality, from the crystal clear lenses to the body and packaging. A couple of notes, they are a bit heavy and for long viewing a sturdy tripod is in order. Be sure to order with the Zeiss mounting device. Also, To access the mounting port you will need to remove the plastic plug that must be screwed out by hand (fingers only) as there is no slot for a screwdriver and the instruction manual is a not helpful on the point. Otherwise, I couldn't be more pleased.
