bought some today at LCE for £130, new. RSPB have them for £279, so bought them cheaply. Tried a few others before i got these, but know little of binos. Are these any good? preferred them to the 10x42.
Not a brand i have noticed before.

Were they new or secondhand?

New. London Camera Exchange have these on sale at half price.
Compared them to Nikons, and Bush's
Went out with them at the weekend, well impressed in full daylight.

I tried the 6x5x32s outside a shop once. Very nice but I didn't liek the little bit of slack in the focus wheel. Hard to find proper focus, just didn't snap to it.
