The ZEN is a really good product with outstanding optical quality. The craftsmanship of this can match with my other alpha and beta collections. Like another member said, you should keep an open mind. Don't expect ZEN to be the magic binoculars to cure all of our lament over other binoculars for lacking one feature or another. From my experience, it has a very balanced design and excels in many ways. Just compare it to monarch and decide whether it is worth spending extra $50 on ZEN. Then, compare it to any Alpha binoculars and decide whether you want to spend another grand.</blockquote>
