    Steve. You are right on. When I review a binocular I try not to have any preconceptions or expectations based on the brand be it a Swarovski or Vortex or Maven. Contrary to popular belief I believe most of these review sites try to be as unbiased as humanly possible as you say. I really don't...

    Jerry. The new Vortex UHD's are made in Japan and they are quite high quality as high of quality as any alpha. I felt the same way you did about Vortex not being capable of making an alpha level binocular until I tried the Vortex Razor UHD 8x42 based on four good reviews. That is what I do. If...

    Andy. I agree. The review websites serve as a starting point in your binocular search. BBR reviewed the Vortex Razor UHD's highly ,as well as,Audubon so I tried them and liked them and ended up buying two pair. So they can be helpful even though as you say I wouldn't make my final decision...

    Henry. You would be paid because you are writing a review for BBR. I know that you would not be biased in any way. Your reviews cut to the chase. That is why I think you should apply. You could bring objective testing to their website with an optics testing lab where you could dissect the...

    Henry. BBR needs a Binocular Reviewer. I think with your technical knowledge about binoculars and optics you would be an excellent candidate! You could get rid of all that "boilerplate". I would love to read your reviews. They would send you binoculars to test. A dream job for you. You can also...

    ZZZZZZ. The alpha level binocular BBR uses is the Vortex Razor UHD 10x42 not the HD. It scored 92% or the "Very Best" one point behind the Swarovski EL 8.5x42 which scored 93%. The HD would be a mid-tier binocular but is still a very good binocular...

    Canip. That quote about Mediavine does not mean in any way that BBR's reviews are compensated or biased. It is just talking about their advertising which they need to support the website. Be careful what you say about a website on an internet forum unless you have undeniable proof that it is...

    I asked the BBR website, Jason in particular about Mediavine and your accusation. Here was his answer. ‎Dennis Mau‎ to Best Binocular Reviews Are your reviews compensated in anyway or biased because of that compensation? I noticed at the bottom of the page it say's "Exclusive Member of...

    That doesn't mean in no way they are getting paid for their reviews or that their reviews are biased in any way at all. IMO their reviews are very fair and accurate and I would trust them more than many other reviews. You are inferring something that is not true.

    Before you you bad mouth a website do your research! From the BBR Website. "100% Real & Honest Reviews I would like to make it completely clear that all the reviews and advice that I give on the BBR website and the video channel are my own honest and completely genuine opinions and I am in no...
