I will get back to their experience in a bit. Then I took another good look thru my 7x36 EX birder binos & at least with my eyes wearing glasses the overall image quality & handling still leaves me with more of a positive then negative experience. Of course, I did not have the same WOW experience having owned & using optics for the last 35yrs. Since I paid $169.95 it a keeper. That being said one should always try out a pair of binoculars first before handing out your hard earned dollars, whether your a novice or a expert. Looking thru a pair of binoculars is a very objective experience. So to all of you people new to the world of optics enjoy these first impressions & just get out there & glass!!!</blockquote>
