I bought this set of 10x50 binoc's to replace an old Nikon 7x50 model. The Nikon cost more than this Pentax when it was purchased. The differences between the two are amazing.
First, the 50mm lens on the Nikon is actually smaller than the 50mm lens on this Pentax. Perhaps because of this, the view through the Pentax is considerably brighter. It is much brighter than I would expect simply because of the slight size difference, however.
Secondly, although the Pentax has 10x magnification rather than the 7x of the older unit, the view is much sharper and clearer. I would have expected the reverse to be true.
My only complaint is that the "built-in tripod socket" requires an "optional tripod adapter" in order to actually use a tripod. Why? It would seem simple to make the socket the correct diameter and thread to fit a standard tripod. And why should the adapter be optional? It must cost all of 25 cents to make.
So, four stars instead of the five I would give it based on quality of view.

Mine were TERRIBLE. Focus is impossible! Focus adjustment is rough and sticks. If you try to fine focus, you go right past where you want to be.

I thought these would be good binocs from the other reviews. The body is metal, but the eyepiece assemblies are completely PLASTIC. They warp and they are not quality. Even the eyepiece "lenses" are plastic, not glass. The main objectives are glass, but the eyepiece lenses are plastic. That's not quality in my book. I wanted to send them for repair, but Pentax wants me to pay $25 AND shipping, to repair them! That's not a warranty, it's highway robbery!

Never again Pentax!

If you want good value then these are your binoculars. When I got them I went out in the street and read a license plate three blocks away. I'm nearsighted - 220 in one eye 160 in the other - yet I can balance the binoculars sans glasses & get a crisp view at any distance in a couple seconds. Good for dim light. We are going to the Grand Canyon and also to the U2 "Claw" tour and these are perfect. The rubber lens caps are sturdy & fit tight so hiking in dirt and wet will be okay. They are fairly light for their size, but they aren't small. Very nice lightweight nylon weave case and strap.

I'm no expert on these things, but we took them on our recent trip to Denali, and they were just what we needed! Rugged, good feel, excellent optics. We zoomed in so easily on the bears and sheep and other critters! They're too big for me to take to a football game, but for wilderness viewing, they're the tops in my book!
