Hardly used and only two years old. These binoculars are the best of the Alpha range at this magnification, beating the Swarovski NLPure, which I also have. Offering a flat and wide field of view is ideal for scanning the horizon or viewing close up. Purchased brand new two and a half years ago and hardly used. Fully multi-coated optics for bright and sharp images, the long eye relief and twist-up eyecups provide comfortable viewing for all users, regardless of eyewear. The anti-reflection coating and phase-coated optics minimise glare and maximise contrast, ensuring you don't miss any detail in your observations.
