Athlon 8X42 Midas G2 Features
UHD Glass - Extra-Low Dispersion glass: UHD glass gives you an image with little or no chromatic fringe so the final result brings a clearer and sharper image to your eyes
ESP Dielectric Coating- Enhanced Spectral Prism Dielectric Coating: ESP Dielectric Coating is a multi layer prism coating that reflects over 99% of the light to your eyes bringing you a clear, bright image that displays accurate color reproduction.
Lightweight Magnesium Chassis: Magnesium chassis give you the strength of a metal chassis while reducing the weight as much as 35%
XPL Coating- Xtra Protective Layer coating: XPL Coating gives you an extra protection on the exterior lenses from dirt, oil and scratches
Phase Corrected prisms: Phase corrected prisms produce images that have better contrast, a higher resolution and better color reproduction:
BaK4 prisms: Bak-4 glass prisms reflect more light to your eyes which will give you brighter and sharper image.
Advanced FMC: Advanced Fully Multi-Coated lenses gives you better light transmission to bring optimum brightness and true color across the entire light spectrum.
Long Eye Relief: Long eye relief can be particularly important for eyeglass wearers because longer eye relief allows them to still see the entire field of view.
Close Focus: Close focus is important for those who are nature observers and especially important if you are going to watch butterflies or insects
Twist Up Eyecups: Twist up eyecups with intermediate stops allow you to set the eyecups to the ideal eye relief for you eyes
Waterproof: Waterproof to protect the binocular in the harshest weather conditions or if accidentally submerged underwater
Argon Purged: Argon purging gives you better waterproofing and thermal stability

The first thing I noticed is how bright they are. That’s great and for only $300. But they are made in China. Even so, I’ll keep them.

Phenomenal
I am glad I listened to those saying 8x42 !is better than 10x50 when the quality is excellent. These prove that right for anyone hunting under 600yards- probably a lot further as game can be spotted well over a mile away. Could not be happier, fantastic value.

Very pleased with sitting in arm chair and viewing the feeder with the birds. What will the walk in the woods be like?

A gift for him?
We have binoculars but they just never seem to be right for me. I’d frequently say ' I can’t see that bird you're talking about.’ When I saw these spotlighted in the NYT, I thought they were just what he needed, and they were!
