Picked up a pair of these baby's last week - one word - awesome. Especially for the price....
I bought them based on some reading from here, and had never seen them in the flesh - I was expecting something large... but crikey! For an accurate simulation people - hold two full champagne bottles up - same size and weight!
The views are great, from the few quick looks I've had - sharp, high contrast, very nice pinpoint stars. Resolved Jupiter to a disc (a small one mind you!). Blows away my other 50mm binos for sure.
I've only a cheapo camera tripod, which precariously holds them at the moment (forget handholding!) - I'm waiting for the binos to torque the camera mounting plate right off of the tripod... may have to look at a decent tripod to use now.
For $200 I don't think you can go wrong - this is now my grab n go scope - I'm also starting to think that a pair of these would give you two great finderscopes too.....
Couldn't resist a pic.... you can't go wrong with the Bimbadgen sparkling shiraz either!
Did you have that bottle on hand or go and buy it just to show and then drink.
