Unfortunately the FIELD FLATTENER inscription on the casing of the binoculars seems to be just a joke of the producer. On the edge of the field there is a really huge blurry area, practically as big as the one you see on the edge of the Monarch 7 8x30, a device three times cheaper, without any field flattener. It is an obvious slip-up.

A great, large, contrasty, pleasant and easy field of view. Perhaps a touch warm toned, with the contrast recalls the "look" of Leica but with better FOV than most of their offerings. Ergonomically they are great with good hinge tension and a smooth focus that is free of backlash. For me the eye relief works perfectly - The M7 8x30, Opticron Traveller and just about all other compact bins lack enough eye relief for me with glasses. With the M7 I have to mash my glasses into my face to get the full field of view but with these there is a couple extra mm available and I get a pleasant and easy, comfortable view without having to try too hard.

These are no better than the 8x30 Nikon M7's or Maven B.3's which are half their price . The eye cups are too short for the eye relief creating blackouts. I returned my quickly. No way are they worth $950.00.
