"I intended to use the product for portable viewing of everything from looking at Jupiter, Venus, and the stars to scanning for whales during whale watching trips to looking at exotic birds at the zoo. The bino strap doesn't go in the leather case too well. The close focus needs to be closer. The colors are amazing like with their camera lenses and the image is sharp and clear. But under certain day conditions, there is noticable chromatic aberration. The bino. is very light so is very shaky. It needs tripod support. It's not the 10x magnification as I also use Nikon 10x70s which is very balanced in the hand despite it's weight. Good stray light correction (like observing next to a street light at night)."

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
