Razorhunter, i always said to myself i would never pay more than 200 bucks for a pair of binocs.Well when i bought a new 4 wheeler they gave away a pair of predators with the purchase.Those darn things were almost worth the atv purchase.Very clear optics and they do work great @ night.With a full moon on snow i can watch deer out to roughly 500 yards.They are definitly waterproof as many a rainstorm can attest.I hope this helps.BTW i have the 8x32
