It comes with Pro Gear® accessories, too: including a GO Afield™ binocular harness, lens covers, and lens cloth. And like all Leupold® binoculars, it's fogproof, waterproof, and guaranteed to perform for life.

Review: Habe das Glas seit einem Monat in Gebrauch. Für diese Preisklasse sehr gute optische Leistung. Nicht mit High End Gläsern aber mit durchaus teureren Gläsern vergleichbar. Gute Dämmerungsleistung. Klares Bild auch in Gegenlichtsituation. Sehr handlich. Drehaugenmuscheln etwas klapprig. Fahren sich beim Tragen des Glases teilweise ungewollt ein. Keine zu große Tiefenschärfe des Bildes. Daher entsprechendes Fokussieren erforderlich. Insgesamt sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
Review: The product is excellent.

I haven't used these it the woods yet but have tested them from my balcony to over look the lake and neighbourhood. I find them clear, they have a good quality feel to them and work just great...I will see if they fog up once the cooler weather comes. So far I am very pleased with them.
