I must say there's one aspect of the report missing - and this is the low light ability of the binoculars. I myself have owned a few but none the high end pairs. I have a newer Pentax 12x50 that is not as near sharp or illuminating as handed-down 20 yr old pair of Nikon 8x42's. It's hard to get that aspect in the well-lit store so just keep your receipt I suppose.
The pair I really want is by Zeiss but it's a grand... which is really hard to justify unless I suppose you will be using them for several hours every single day.
