Sharp and bright with lightweight materials for all day use. It's a nice feature that the eyepiece shades screw in for eyeglasses wearers. I suggest putting the eyepiece cover through the neck strap on only one side so it hangs out of the way while you're looking through the binocs. Nice also that the lens covers clip off the hang straps so you can leave them at home - they're not really necessary when the binocs are hanging around your neck and the lenses are facing down. Just speaking as someone who spent years doing all day building facade inspections using 1990's vintage Zeiss 10x40 T* armored binocs, these Terras are damn nice. You would have to spend a LOT more for something noticeably better and you don't have to treat the Terras like the family jewels if you're climbing around somewhere rugged, which you probably are. Review: Awesome!!! - These binoculars are a real value. My primary binoculars are Swarovski SLC 8X50 which I use for birding. I wanted a lighter pair with more magnification, and did not want to spend big bucks for a second pair of high quality binsoculars. I was pleased to discover that Zeiss made an affordable binocular and decided to try them out. The image is chrystal clear and very bright. I was impressed with the view as soon as i took my first look. The wide field of view made it easy to find the target with only a little bit of practice. The binocular comes with a very nice neoprene neck strap. It also includes a velvet soft pouch with a voucher for a heavy duty case if you are willing to pay shipping. There are also lens covers made of soft rubber and a cleaning cloth. I mentioned these items because I could find no information about what was included other than a display case. Overall I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of my purchase. ## Features - 88% LIGHT TRANSMISSION - SCHOTT ED - glass with a hydrophobic multi-coating provides optical clarity and precision in all situations. - COMFORTABLE, FAST FOCUSING - The large, smooth and easy-to-grip focus wheel makes focusing particularly easy and, most of all, quick on a ZEISS Terra ED.

Zeiss actually sells one "ZEISS universal tripod adapter for binoculars" **Q: Is there any play in the focus adjustment when you reverse directions? Or is it tight, instant reverse? I'm not sure how else to phrase/describe it** A: I think I know what you are asking about. There is no play in the focus adjustment. Any movement in the focus adjustment translates to a change in focus with no play or hesitation. **Q: Are they considered compact in size?** A: Not compact in size, but lighter than comparable optics of the same size. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value binoculars.

The brightness of both binoculars is about the same, very good for both, but the Zeiss have a very noticeable edge in clarity. I can see fine details of the birds' feather patterns with the Zeiss that I cannot with the Nikons, helping to distinguish between all those troublesomely similar sparrows. The binocs seem solid and well-made, and adjustments and focusing are smooth. For the price these a GREAT binocs. I'm very pleased so far! Unfortunately, my wife also likes them a lot so I've a feeling I'll be using the old Nikons until I can afford another pair of Zeiss.
