Yes
The Bottom Line:
These are a terrific and you'd be a fool to miss out on them.
Small enough to fit in your pocket and yet truly worthwhile as binoculars! The bigger they are after all, the less you'll want to carry them around. And these are as portable as it comes.
What I really love about these binoculars is that the optics are wonderful. There is no sense of looking through inferior materials. They feel like something that Q gave James Bond at the last outfitting before he goes on assignment.
They are not terribly bright so for astronomical or other low light uses, unless you are looking at the moon (which looks very well in low power) these are really more for daylight to twilight use or dawn to dusk as it were. 16/6 = 2.6666666666666666666666666666667 which we'll call 3. And for astronomy you want a 5 (not more than that, your eyes can't process it).
They are just right to accompany you on walks, when going anywhere at all and especially on trips. I just toss them into my bag or car when going everywhere and keep them at hand when at home. They absolutely magnify the times when you will reach for them just because they are present and you can use them in an instant.
Did I mention the optics are terrific? Well, they are. And the fit and finish are impeccable. You'll delight in them when at the opera, or catching an interesting bird or just checking out the scenery wherever you go.
Don't walk; run to get one of these. They don't seem terribly popular so the source may dry up at any time.
Oh, the picture they have here of them is awful. Mine are beautiful in brushed metal and black. And no, I don't have any relation to this company or stock in it.
