Pros
  • Everything already said + lightness
Cons
  • I sold them
OK... 11+ years since i reviewed these - so why reiterate all the superlatives?

Well there is no reason except tha in my previous review, I explained how I chose the 10x42 SE over the 8x32 SE (which I sold) because I did not have any issues with high manifications... FF 11 years and I am now in the position when my neck and back starts to ache after a short while when out birding with my Nikon 10x42.

So - the 8x32 seems to be the winners in the long run - only drawback is that I sold them.

Pros
  • Amazing glass with 3D effect and ergonomic design
Cons
  • Eyecups poor, stiff focus, lack of weatherproofing
Every time I think that that I'm going to get an expensive pair of roofs that are over $600, I look through these and my eyes delight all over again with the crystalline views. Yes I had to flip my eye-cups around and I do have to put up with stiff focusing and keep it out of the rain, but for the views they grant me, I too am happy with these 8x32 SEs as my Alphas!

Pros
  • A textbook example of how to make binocular.
Cons
  • Lack of absolute weatherproofing.
Still the benchmark.
