Thank you!
Bob: Neal is correct!
That does NOT mean MY assessment of any binocular is correct. Having been inside more binos than most bino execs have ever seen in a warehouse, I feel pretty confident about making judgments . . . that would make ME happy. HOWEVER, from MY perspective, some people on the list take performance way into language that THEY do not understand and I honestly don't care about.
If we took all the technical stuff off this list it would be VERY dry. And while I am responsible for a lot of it, I really don't use it in my life that much. I can pick good binoculars from bad in a matter of seconds without any weird, next to meaningless testing.
Prostar=I've yet to see a better 7x50.
FMT=I've yet to find a better 7x50 for a boat--though I have chosen to drop Fujinon after decades.
Orion Resolux=FMT knock off. A good bino no matter whose name is on it . . . and there are many.
Cheers,
Bill
