[bsmitty27]

Anyone look at one of these yet? It has my attention. The price is good. The reviews I have seen are good but would like to see if any of my trusted AO friends hade any thoughts.
I am not trying to start a lepuold vs Bushnell vs zeiss vs.......
Thanks Brad

i just bought a pair...havent field tested them yet but will this weekend.

My only gripe so far is how dim the RF display is when outside. I have it on the brightest setting and its hard to see in the city...ill see how it does in the bush

otherwise these are awesome!

I dont own a pair but the same experience as jaime, got to play with a pair a few weeks ago.

Outranged the bushnell and leupold rangefinders I was playing with at the same time.

The display is not as bright as it could be for a sunny afternoon veiwing.

Glass seemed bright and crisp, if its the same glass as the e2 series binocs they will be awesome in low light.

Thanks I cant wait to hear a full field review from you. What did you pay for them? and where did you get them? Does anyone know. What binoculars have the same glass.

Thanks Brad

Glass is clear, used at dusk and its pretty bright, greenish tint to glass.

Longest range 1722 yards at a large electrical box (one mile is 1760 yards!!!)
Black object a little smaller than a moose was 805 yards
8x14 cargo trailer 1035 yards
Hillside 1360 yards

It has a ballistic matching program to match it to your ammo to tell you your hold over.

Paid 903 all in and I would do it over again.

played with mine over the weekend...the dim display killed it for me...im returning them

i tried ranging over a wheat field mid day with the sun at my back and you can NOT see the display for the rangefinder

as a binocular they are steller...the rangefinder works very well too....except you cant see the damn thing

i can only imagine how hard it would be to see while coyote hunting over a blanket of white snow

returning them on my way home from work tonight....gonna invest in a pair of Leica Geovids like i should have done in the first place.
