LO.VE_d b_y JE.s_U.S 8/4/2012 10:08:12 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5Pentax Papilio Binoculirio 62215 Model Pros: GOOD for local to close range day-light observations. Allows extremely close range down to 0.5 meters so you can smell the flower and view it with an amplification at the same time like no other binoculars out there. Cons: BAD for night use BAD for moon viewing MEDIOCRE for distant daylight viewing. Made in China Other Thoughts: Item #N82E16884184018 The resolution, that is, light gathering ability of this binoculars is below mediocre level so only get them for their intended purposes--close to medium range daylight observations. This are great binoculars despite the cons--don't get them dissuade you and if you are going for it I would suggest x8 magnification Papillio instead of x6.5 Papilio variety. The light gathering increase with x6.5 version is insignificant for it's intended purposes but you would get closer to the action with x8 device. They do cost $120 and not $1,200 like some ED lens binocs so expect appropriate value out of them. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you?
