For Yosemite 6x30mm in Medium & Compact Binoculars
Recommended
Yes
Price
0$
Pros
  • price, color, light gathering, sharpness, mechanical operation
Cons
  • THE slightest loss of sharpness on edges fo FOV which for the price is forgiveable
Just a reiteration really to what others have said. I own a pair of Swarovski "Habicht SL" and have had a pair of Leitz-Leica roofs and can say that 99% of the people out there would have a hard time seeing any difference in them save FOV in the Habichts (which of course are 7X42!) and slightly better edge sharpness. Of course they are $600.00 so I guess you've gotta get something for that extra money! The eye relief (cups) on these little glasses are easy to use and the glass is rugged over all; Leupold learned that lesson in their rifle scopes.
