provide a brilliant and detailed view with accurate colors and great low light visibility. If you are not a demanding stickler for the very best quality, do not buy these. Spend three hundred bucks and be happy. But if you want the finest out there under $2000, then buy these Conquest binoculars. And if you want even better, consider a pair of Zeiss Victory's at $2,500. Just remember that you get very incremental quality improvement for that extra $1,500. That's the whole thing about optics. It costs a ton more for a small improvement.
One note - don't buy the Zeiss carrying case separately.($45) The binoculars come with that case already in the package.
The second reason is not as obvious and might help others choose. The Zeiss focus knob is very sensitive. It will take some getting used to. At the same time, the sensitive focus knob is very easy to adjust with just one finger. This makes it so that one-handed use and focusing is easier to do. The Vortex honestly felt really good in my hands. It has great ergonomics. However, with the Vortex I felt like I couldn't focus as easy unless I had two hands on them. I did a lot of one handed focusing on my last hunting trip and I thought that the Zeiss would be better at that.
Conclusion: The Zeiss Conquest HD has great optics. The ergonomics are not as nice as the Vortex Razor, but I liked the sensitive focus knob.
Taken in isolation, the 10x56s are impressive too. But for the added size and bulk, they were not adding anything substantial for my use case, vis-a-vis the 10x42 Conquests. If I am buying a binocular with a 56mm objective, I might as well go for the 15x56, for the added bulk. In really low-light conditions (near pitch-dark to the naked eye), both of these binoculars exhibited a light-intensification effect, and to my eyes, both of them looked comparable, with a very slight edge to the 10x56.
The eye-cups are a bit gritty and I am not a big fan of the diopter ring on the oculars, but I am willing to overlook that, for the high-quality optics. The Zeiss SFs and the Swarovski ELs and the NL Pures are of course a notch better in every way, but they cost over double and triple the cost of these Conquests, and I could not justify the additional cash outlay for the incremental improvement in performance.
I returned the 10x56s and kept the 10x42s.
Top reviews from other countries
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.
