Pros & Cons

The compass is fluid filled with good dampening. With supplies batteries, the night light for compass reading glows a cool blue hue.
This feature comes in handy when relaying quick navigational references or pinpointing locations of crashing fish and bait balls from a tuna tower. Makes navigation easier.

The way these are held in place is to push the binos in as far as they will go put the cover on then spread the binos back out ... Read More
Competitiveness
The oceana binocs are certainly comparable to these even a bit better in some aspects
If you are looking for a budget set of binos for field marine and hunting use these would be a great set to get
Reviews complaing about individual focus should read the description first
Therefore i cannot compare this one with those highend products

I could nit pick a few items but the price quality is so exceptional it would be unfair to celestron
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
But they are often much more expensive 300 and the differences in quality will not justify the price differentials to the avg person
