Zeiss Terra ED Binoculars, 8x42, Black,524203-9901-000

Having done birdwatching for close to 8 months before the Zeiss bins and then for 2 months with them, the world of difference a good pair of bins make is a needless sell. I haven't used others in its category, so I will refrain from comparisons. Suffice it to say that the clarity of image, reproduction or colours, performance under low ambient light, ease of focus and the field of view are all top-notch. With a compact, sleek design, the product scores high. That said, there is a wee element of the weight factor. I will stop short of calling this heavy but it does feel like a sturdy piece of equipment. Go for it if you have the money and the inclination. This is worth every rupee you shell out for it.
