Remarks:

One of the top 10x42s on the market today. Some people prefer it even over the famous 10×50 EL SV (which has almost reached “cult status” among hobby astronomers) because it is more compact and lighter than the latter. Its edge sharpness outperforms all other same size premium binoculars, even the Zeiss Victory SF (see separate post).
