0/ I tried the Meopta Optika HD for a similar price. I found them to be very well built with a tack-sharp center. But for the low price, something has a be scrimped on. In my case it was the Field of View. They were 10x42 with a 6 degree FOV. Yikes,...it was like looking through a scope. Anyway, I think this may apply to the models above as well. Nothing wrong with them as they are probably a credit to their price, just know, going in, you would be getting a slightly reduced FOV in either the 8x or the 10x above as compared to more pricey pairs.

both 8x42 models have a FOV of 7 degrees,the Opticrons are £599 and the Deltas are £299

Yeah, I'm thinking the 8x might not feel as limited on FOV. And clearly these DO resemble the Opticrons.
