I just purchased a new pair of Vortex Vulture 8.5 X 50 Binoculars and they are amazing. The clarity of the binos is the best I have seen. They are clearer than The Steiner line that my hunting buddy has. I would urge anyone thinking of buying a new pair of binos the at least check out the Vortex line-up. I think you will be pleasantly surprised by them. The only downside is they are a trifle heavy. Gary
