Picked up 10X50 Leopold Mesa Binos

<< < (2/2)

coyotemadness:
I have the same ones. Great in low light. Cant go wrong for the price.

Intruder:
I've never looked through the Leupold Mesa's so I can't honestly comment on how good they may be.

As far as comparing to these higher end binos....  I've never ever seen any of the lower end binos that comes close to the upper end ones.  Some do a pretty fair job of light gathering but nothing close to the high end ones... like when looking into cover under low light.  Clarity and optical quality are really where you start to see the major difference.  Using them to glass for hours a day (especially for several days)is where you'll totally see and "feel" the difference in your eyes.  The fatigue experienced using high end binos will be far less.

I'm not saying that everyone should go out and drop a grand + on binos.  There are some flat awesome binos out there between 400-600 bucks.  But depending on how and where you hunt the upper end ones can definitely be worth every penny.
