However, when I compared the Meopta Meostar B1 7x42 with the Leica Ultravid HD-plus 7x42 I found (to my surprise, I must admit) that its optical specifications were on a number of points identical, on some even better, the weight was quite a bit more, but overall it was also a very very attractive binocular for 849 euro versus 2040 euro for the Leica. That alltogether can be a strong argument in favor of the Meopta 7x42. Gijs van Ginkel</blockquote>
