## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A definite value.
*by F***2 on November 23, 2016*

I purchased this optic in 12x50. After reading some reviews, I had some concerns as there was mention of blurriness, weight and supposedly the wrong models being shipped. I have to say that these are amazing binoculars, seriously. I was afraid the 12 power would be too heavy to stabilize or would be fuzzy appearing on closer viewing distances but that's not the case at all. I was able to acquire a nice, wide field of view with impressive clarity and crisp images in fair weather conditions. I had no issues with chromatic abberation, even looking into direct sunlight. They even perform well in low-light settings, far better than I can see without them brightness wise. These binoculars have abl rubberized outer coating on them to assist with gripping them as well as to deter damage from smacking into things, its effective and fairly unobtrusive. They also have the bulletproof Vortex Warranty in the off chance you manage to break them. My only recommendation is to ditch the standard neck strap that comes with them and get a harness due to the higher power being a bit heavy to free hand without shaking, I bought the vortex offering there too and had no trouble holding them still. All things considered I'm happy with my purchase and would buy them over again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic quality and great value priced binoculars.
*by N***A on October 8, 2019*

I was amazed at the clarity with these binoculars. I tried many pairs including much higher priced ones and these were my first choice every time. The picture is crystal clear and I'm truly amazed at how they focus perfectly on wildlife. My husband did not tell me the cost until I had selected the pair I liked best and these won each and every time. What a fantastic value for such wonderful quality!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ a nice "hand feel"
*by P***M on June 29, 2018*

Absolutely outstanding optics. I was stunned by the edge-to-edge clarity, sharpness and brightness, and I was using them toward the evening. Very short throw on the focus knob, a nice "hand feel" ... the case and accessories are well done. I'm amazed at the power in this relatively small package. GREAT JOB Vortex.
