Obviously excellent lenses / performance but quite heavy. so only good if you travel by vehicle or if you really need this 15 x magnification. ALso for some reason they show image of two binos - one longer and one shorter - without specifying which one is which and what you need to do to get the shorter one. battery replacement is a pain, you use coin and metal scratches the binos. no strap for case. And mine came already previously opened and not re-packed.On positive side : there is no comparable combination though from anyone else in the mkt 15 x AND range meter! good value

Great glass. Super clear and bright. Great choice. The range finder is spot and and really easy to use. I didn't need an AB calculator function In my bino's so this was a great choice.
I was excited to purchase these as the price was right and I've owned Leica's in the past and have been pleased with the glass. However - I was very disappointed to find that they range image was very thin in terms of font - and the brightness was not adjustable. I found it difficult to quickly find the target image and read the range. I returned them to Cabela's and purchased the Swaro EL Range bino's - and I should have just spent the $$ and bought the Swaro's in the first place
So far so good! Can't beat German glass! First season with them.
Great set of binoculars, compared with sworovski and I believe the Leicas have better glass, definitely priced better than Zeiss and Sworovski, the only draw back is to operate the rangefinder it is on the left side of the glass and for a right handed bow hunter it can be hard to operate, that is the only draw back and I would say minimal
The geovid R older style ate super. Puchased the mew style first snd they arrived defective. Cabelas did take care of me and i purchased the older version. Very satisfied with them and Cabelas and Bass Pro Shop
These binoculars have a roof style prism not perger porro as advertised.Do a bit of research elsewhere before you buy.They are still excellent binoculars.
I have had these for about 18 months and I could not be any happier. I have never seen glass like this good. Unmatched in my opinion. Worth every penny!
