Those reflections and spikes you reported seem to be common complaints from users of non - phase coated roof prism binoculars . The Minolta Activa you used as a comparo would probably provide very stiff competition for some binoculars costing far more than this Brunton did . I think , in terms of value for money , a word you used several times in your report , " reasonable " , sums this model up quite well .
