Pros Bright and color correct Lightweight Quality Good accessories
Cons Expensive! Less depth of focus No lens caps (!)
Recommended it? Yes

I have been searching for some excellent quality small binoculars for some time and finally decided to bite the bullet and get a set. After researching the options for quite some time, I got down to the decision point. It was the Leica 10x25s versus the Swarovski equivalent. My benchmarks were... Read full review »

Excellent Compact binocular

Pros Exceptional optical fidelity, compact size, uncompromising build quality.
Cons Expensive, but not more than other glasses at this quality level.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought these compact binoculars for travel use to be carried in my camera bag or in my coat pocket. I considered Nikon, Leica and Zeiss 10x25s before deciding on these. I would say that the Swarovskis are easily the equal of any other super premium compacts available. Color rendition, sharpness,... Read full review »

Pros Sharp, easy to focus, comfortable eyecups, very good eye relief.
Cons Lens covers over objectives sometimes fall off body.
Recommended it? Yes

I use binoculars primarily for hunting.  Over the years I have owned a few cheap binos and my usual gripe is twofold - they lack sharpness and do not hold up to long-term (ab)use.  I finally decided to get something good, but could not mentally justify the cost of brands S, Z, or L. ...

Cons cannot think of any at this time.
Recommended it? Yes

I have owned several kinds of binoculars over the years. These Vipers are exceptional. They are easy to focus, easy to change distances and extremely bright, even in dim light. I bought these to view whales in Maui in January 2008. Have not left on the trip yet but have tried these out at home to... Read full review »
