Midway has a deal on these now with Chest harness. Anyone have these in their hands?
Wow. I completely disagree with this but then, I don't have your eyes, and you don't have mine, so I'll respect your opinion.I tried out a pair last year. They are well built and not a bad option for the price, but the glass quality is not comparable to the Zeiss binoculars in that same price range. You should take a look at the Terra ED 10x42s. They are around the same price as the BX4s but the edge to edge clarity on the Terra ED is much better.
It's tough to beat the Conquest HDs! It's important to look through a few different brands of binos before buying a pair. Like you said, everybody's eyes will have a preference to certain pieces of glass!Wow.

I've read very good things about the Terra ED 8x32's, but I've looked through several pairs of 10x42's and all I saw was cheap Chinese high distortion glass.
If a person isn't satisfied with the 8x32 BX-4's, they need to save up for a pair of Conquest HD 8x32's, which in my personal experience, are the very best of the Conquest line, and rival true alpha-class bins.
