So far I am impressed by them. It's not dark yet so I haven't looked at any stars yet, but they are pretty nice on The pine tree I looked at from about 150 yards. I could see individual needles on the branches.There were also three crows sitting in the tree, and I could clearly see their beaks. I was suprised at the detail of the 20X image. The collimation seems to be dead on. Hopefully it will stay half way clear, and I will be able to look at the moon tonight and see how much chromatic abberation they show, and I will report back on that. I'm a novice as far as optics go, but for 200 dollars I would highly reccomend these binoculars.

The moon was beautiful. Lots of detail,and minimal chromatic abberation. I'm going to keep these binoculars.
