8x42 PRO

Very happy with this binoculars, it is very crisp, no chromatic abberation, the field of view is wide wich make it comfortable to use. This is a all around binocular, perfect for travel or if you don't need a dedicated one for a special purpose.

I am a binocular fanatic and ever since the AllBinos.com test compared these binoculars to binoculars that were up to 5 times more expensive, I was interested. Unfortunately, the opportunity never arose to try it myself and so a purchase was not made, until now. There was an offer at an online store that I couldn't pass up and I decided to take a chance. To start at the end, I don't think the binoculars are good, but excellent. I compared it with my Zeiss Conquest 7x42. The Zeiss is slightly longer and slimmer. Both give a feeling of solidity. The image is almost as sharp as that of the Zeiss. I find the focusing of the Olympus more pleasant than that of the Zeiss. At dusk, the Zeiss's image may be slightly brighter than that of the Olympus (which costs less than half). Both provide a natural image and I cannot notice any significant difference in contrast. Finally, 25 years warranty for the Olympus and 10 for the Zeiss, need I say more?
