5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent optics, will bring it out every time I am hiking
Reviewed in Canada on March 15, 2016
I bought this as an upgrade for my 10 year old 7x30 bino. It isn't a fair comparison because my old bino only took me 500 Chinese Yuan (roughly $100 CAD today). But that is the only bino I had. Well, I had tried a 8x42 bino ($200 CAD) years ago but my memory already faded. When I got this
Conquest HD 8x32 it was still winter. The first day I took it out on a trail I was a bit disappointed because the color fringing seemed to be quite visible. I would say as bad as my old bino. Somehow I thought it's because the weather caused the extra high contrast (white snow + white sky VS
black/grey tree). Then I noticed there's dust inside of the binocular. The seller was contacted and they re-send me a new one once received my return. I don't have to pay for the shipment. Thumbs up!

The new bino has a greater serial number so I assume it is manufactured later than the original one. When I brought this out, there seemed to be less chromatic abberation. The image quality is very good. Now I understand what it meant by "objects pop out" in the reviews I read. Resolution is very high, it definitely deserve "HD" on its body. If I am comparing it with my old 7x30, it's like comparing 720p to 480p, especially at night. During the day, even the birds behind the woods can stand out from the image.

Pros:
- High image resolution
- Excellent contrast
- Wide field of view. This makes is very easy to search objects.
- Very smooth focusing knob, it takes only slightly more than one full turn from closet to infinity. This makes tracking objects (birding) much easier than my old bino, which takes 2+ turns.
- Neck strap is very comfortable.
Cons:
- When turning Eyecups, after the first click, the one on the diopter side would separated from the inner sleeve (the part that screws onto the binocular). Workaround is to turn it reversely so it screws tightly.
- Lens caps and eye caps feel cheap. Even my old binocular's caps feel much better and easier to use. Fortunately this doesn't really impact the daily usage.

Overall:
Image quality is very good. I took quite some nice pictures of birds using my cell phone through this bino, although the picture quality never come close the the actual view through the binoculars.
Rolling globe effect is still there but it doesn't bother me. Chromatic abberation is almost unnoticeable in most cases.
