    Sky Rover Banner Cloud 8x42 APO Review

    Plagerized from another site........ Sky Rover is a subdivision of United Optics. Binoculars, spotting scopes and telescopes are designed and fabricated there at the United Optics plant near Kunming (which I have just recently visited). There is no relation to the former Zen-Ray, whose...

    New Binocular Bargains Thread

    I'd almost guarantee it's the greatest bino he's ever seen, especially at that price. Rivals the NL and every other super-alpha on the planet......we can all hear it now. Honestly, Cloudy Nights reviews have good things to say.

    Looked on your site for the GPO review, couldn't find it. What are your thoughts?

    New Geovid colours

    That stands for Applied Ballistics, the ballistic program integrated in this Geovid bino. A $1200 Vortex Fury AB has had that for 2+ years already.

    which 10x42 : Nikon HG / GPO Passion HD / Maven B1.2 / Vortex Razor HD ?

    That may be true, but the moral to the story is that the buyer's were left hanging and had it not been for Vortex stepping up and taking care of them, they would have been out of luck, and their money.

    which 10x42 : Nikon HG / GPO Passion HD / Maven B1.2 / Vortex Razor HD ?

    Some guy named Scott owned Liberty Optics. He apparently ran a solid business until recently. Customers placed orders there, paid the bill, and the orders never got turned in to Vortex so the customer got hosed by Liberty. Vortex received numerous complaints about this so they stepped up to...

    which 10x42 : Nikon HG / GPO Passion HD / Maven B1.2 / Vortex Razor HD ?

    Just snagged a Razor HD 10x42 from Cabelas at a net cost of $529. They are a steal at that price. After the way Vortex stepped up to the plate to take care of its customers in the wake of the Liberty Optics fiasco, I decided that's a company I can support. I guarantee no other optics company...

    Vortex vs Swarovski vs Zeiss vs Leika bins (~8x42)

    To the OP Steves13, the best advice I can give is that you have to try them yourself and see what your eyes like and ergonomics fit with your facial structure.

    Binocular for spotting owls

    Here's one I took through an Athlon Ares 15-45x spotting scope at approximately 700 yards. I found them through my 8x42 SLC's

    A Zeiss Conquest HD on steroids.

    He always tries to baffle us with BS. Problem with that strategy is that most everyone here has caught on to his tactics, which are laughable. The dude has become a clownshow.
