“So after a lot of research my search for binoculars came down to this pair and the McKenzie bx-1 by leupold . This was originally a gift for my wife and I decided to by both so she would have a better chance at get a pair that fit her face and felt good in the hand ! I thought she would like the leupolds better , but it turned out that vortex folded in more , so a person with eyes closer together can see more clearly! She also didn’t notice a difference in the clearity between the 2 and actually like the vortex better . This was a surprise win and over gives a great value for quality glass!”
