But the main strength of the Zeiss Victory models, both the Victory HT and now the Victory SF, is their crystal clear sharp image and their low light performance. They take a little setting up and once so you will be ready for some very good viewing in my case bird watching. They are not ideal for holding up over long periods of time so not ideal for bird watching or travel. The small carry case fits onto a belt so they are easily carried hands free and when you want to use the binoculars the wide adjustable strap fits snugly around your neck. We believe they are a perfect balance between small size (32mm lenses), lightweight (416 grams) and excellent quality optics.

These days manufacturers are moving towards Roof-Prism binoculars which have straight barrels and are significantly lighter, easier to handle while not compromising on image quality. Bought these for my wife who wanted a smaller and lighter pair for bird watching and when we go out walking/hiking. Love the lightness of the product, but rather disappointed that the rubber round the top of the lenses don't roll down as stated in the description, which means I have to remove my glasses when wanting to use them.

I needed a lightweight high quality binocular because I have arthritis in my wrist and neck making “normal” bins painful to use over an extended birding watch. binoculars have a-bit more power so are better for general use (not only birding) where you want to look from greater distances.

Small in size yet big on performance, they are the perfect choice for birdwatching, hiking, sports viewing, travel and the outdoors. Although we also love and appreciate the Zeiss Terra we must admit that there is a noticeable difference. It's likely that no further discussion is required, in which case we recommend starting a new thread.

Avalon 8×32 MINI HD Binoculars (PLATINUM)

Not only have I enjoyed the clarity and light weight of these binoculars over the past (almost) three years, but when a problem with the eye-cups occurred, Avalon sent a replacement within three days. The 10 x 40B still seem to function satisfactorily but I was thinking about deterioration of the seals etc.I was unsure whether I would like the lens caps being connected to the binoculars but these work well and I am confident that they will continue to work well (not break off). It is a matter of personal preference but most bird watchers find 8×42 an ideal balance between good magnification yet a stable image and wider field of view than 10×42.
