Very sharp! - Zeiss Terra ED Pocket 10x25mm Schmidt-Pechan Binoculars

I received my pair of Zeiss Terra Ed Compact Pocket Binocular 10x25 from Optics Planet a few days ago. It looks to be very well made. The Terra ED's produce (subjectively to me) sharper images compared to an older pair of Zeiss compacts I own, using them side by side viewing small fruit blossoms. The Terra's snap into focus with natural colors. My pair is marked "Japan" on the binoculars and the box.

The focus wheel on my pair was initially tight and difficult to turn smoothly with 1 finger, but it's getting smoother with a little use. Hinges are nice and tight. The surface is textured for a good grip, and they do have a feeling of weight to help hold them steady.

Things which would have made it an even better buy: a field case to attach to a belt, and slightly larger openings in the attachment points for the neck strap to allow a wider variety of neck straps to be used.

I'm looking forward to using these binoculars for a long time!
