They gather more light than a 20 yr old 8 x 50 pair, when compared in lower light. They focus easily. They come with a beautiful case, covers for the glass, and straps if you desire to attach. Highly recommended Review: A very good binocular for the money. Mine has perfect collmination. Zero eye strain, well done lens caps, well done eye relief. Very good resolution for the money. All the adjustments are very well done. Good edge to edge clarity. Very nice case and harness and neck strap. Of course its not going to have as advanced a lens coatings as a more expensive binoculars but overall very nice.
