I concur with Frank, the Pentax DCF-SP series is absolutely amazing but the rest of the line isn't up to par with some of the other top end binos. I have a pair of Bushnell Legend 12X42's and while they are very nice, I wouldn't recommend them. The lens coatings seem to wear off very easily and the eye cups are just glued on with an inferior glue that will disolve when wet, I took my bino's out in the rain during archery season and found that my eye cups wouldn't twist up because of this.

If you are willing to spend a little extra money, I would look into the Pentax DCF-SP series. I found the Pentax DCF-SP 8X43's on www.hotbuyselectronics.com for $379.98 where as Cabelas wants $549.99 right now, and they are on sale from $599.99 I compared these to Zeiss, Swarovski, and Kahles bino's at Cabelas and in all honesty, I just can't see spending the extra grand for these brands over the Pentax. These are probablly the nicest overall bino's I have ever used if you consider price into the equation.
