Both John's have points, let's just try to be "nice" to each other and remember to re-read your post before pressing submit.
While it would be nice to see reviews from experienced people all the time, it just doesn't happen. So we often get "reviews", or "impressions" from less experienced people.
That's fine too, we just have to remember, that as newbies read these threads it's very easy to get confused by the conflicting information.
Most newbies will never get to look through expensive $1000+ binoculars, and so their impressions of cheaper binoculars is sometimes all we have to go by. It's true for any gear really, not just binoculars. The view might not be fantastic compared to a $1000+ pair, but for $100 it may be fantastic, for the price.
So when anyone does reviews, experienced or not, we just have to remember what the cost is, what our experience is, and what we are comparing it to.
That might help ease the confusion for others who use reviews to base their next purchase on.
