On another forum a member claimed these were the best roof prism he has seen for less than $450 and he got these for less than $300. They look lightweight too. Comments please.

262 ft at 1000 yards? that's not good.

Yeah I saw that FOV for the 10x42 and it is too narrow but the 8.x42 is 340' which is decent.

There is not really much difference in the apparent fields. About 50 degrees for the 10X42, 52 degrees for the 8X42. I would consider both to be pretty narrow, toward the low end of the scale for modern binoculars.
