Thanks for the input - I kind of thought that it might fall into the "too good to be true" category, but I was also hoping to hear from someone who has actually used them in the field.
I have also been considering the usual suspects (Nikon Monarch, Leupold, etc). My budget for a good set of glasses is up to $500 (less is preferable, but it is an investment worth making at my age - most I have been looking at are in the $300-$400 range). Also considering Celestron Granite and Zen-Ray Zen ED3 (a bit more pricey but still within budget) - any thoughts on them?
Along with the standard hunting concerns (not too heavy, waterproof, fog proof, armored) my main consideration is clarity and light transmission - particularly early morning twilight. Ranges are usually 300 yards or less in wooded / rolling terrain.
