Did not meet my expectations. There were some really great reviews, so I had hi expectations and the vanguard Spirit XF didn't measure up. They were not as crisp in focus as I was wanting. Also felt the diopter adjustment was stiff and difficult to adjust/focus.There was something goofy with the tube alignment too?. When I took the binos away from my eyes, my vision was crossed and took about 2 seconds for my normal vision to align. I DID NOT like this sensation/situation/effect.I have returned the these Vanguards via the Amazon Prime system with free return shipping.Just ordered a pair of Nikon Monarch 5's (7577 model). unfortunately, the Nikon's are about x2 the price of these Vanguards. But I want quality. We live on a farm and want to be able to see things clearly for long distances.-----UPDATE----- (4/15/2017)Received Nikon Monarch 5's this week, and am REALLY pleased. Unfortunately, the Nikons were $325 (almost twice as much as these Vanguards). But they are literally twice as good. Glad I returned the Vanguards, and spent extra money for better quality. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really Great Pair of Binos for +/- $150 *by T***H on Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2017* I really like these binoculars. I bought them with a pair of Celestron Nature 8x42s and a pair of Athlon Midas 8x42s, and these are the ones I decided to keep. The image is bright and clear, the color rendering is really good, and I like the way they feel in my hands. The articulation of the joint is really light, so they're super easy to adjust. The total range on the focus knob seems pretty short, so they seem to be really quick to focus. I chose to keep these because they felt better in my hands and had a better image than the Celestrons and, even though the image was better on the Athlons, these were like half the price and still felt better to use. My next pair will probably be one step up in the Vanguard line. These are now my go-to pair and I like them a lot! I use them for birding, but they afford a great view of the moon as well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent for the money *by L***H on Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2013* For the money, these are unreal. Bought them for my annual Colorado elk hunt, to upgrade from a lower power set I own (I allocated my budget to spend money on other things rather than expensive binos). These compare well to $300 pairs of Nikon Monarchs. They're light, and I appreciate the rubberized construction and the ergonomics of the focus wheel. You set focus out to 500 yards or more, and turn and look at something 50 yards away, and it's still close to visible focus, which I love. Downside, which is really not surprising for any glass cheaper than $400, is the color reproduction in low light is not great. If you are using these for everything but very low light conditions, you will be very happy. These are probably half the price of the Nikon Monarchs simply because they're made in China, which doesn't bother me as it seems they are built quite well. One thing I really dislike are the rubber flap covers that go on the front side of the lenses--they're only attached by rubber hoop rings, and they fall off! It's only a matter of time before I lose one, I know it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/70875307-vanguard-spirit-xf-binoculars](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/70875307-vanguard-spirit-xf-binoculars) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
