But I CAN understand wanting the brand name and the support and recognition that go along with it and they are a solid binocular. Honestly, the thing that turned me off about the Terra is how DIM or NOT bright they are! I am just can't tolerate a binocular with less than 85% transmission. I figured being a Zeiss they would at least be pretty bright. I didn't expect HT or SF bright but it shocked me how dim they were!</p></blockquote><p></p>
