I'd like to get your opinion of the Zeiss Terrra ED 10 X 42 binoculars. How do they compare with other glass in their price range? Price seems reasonable for ED glass but haven't had a chance to see a pair.

I think you'll find a GPO Passion ED is superior, the Meopta MeoPro's are superior, the Athlon Midas is superior.
Give a call and we can discuss which would be best for you

I really like mine, the image quality seems very good, the adjustment wheel however could be finer, it isn't sloppy but moves a lot-really fast, but it isn't a 2K swaro either.

I snagged a pair as a back up and they're quite nice... very crisp and clear... I think they're a bargain for the money... I've since bought a few more and given them away as gifts...

I have a pair and they are right in the mix with all the other lower middle class bins out there.....they have a v-good view and a great warranty backed by a long lived and respected company...

The ones I had were only clear in the center with blurred edges, waste of money imo, go ahead and spend the money and be done with it.

They're discontinued and a quick price check has them pushing 5 bills. For that price or 10% less, on any given week, you could have a Nikon Monarch 7 10x42mm. Among other specs is 351' at 1000yds. Whatever you buy compare the cost w/specs. https://www.nikonsportoptics.com/en/nikon-products//binoculars/monarch-7-10x42-atb-.html$447.25 ...w/same coop-un the GPO Passion 10x42 isn't quite a fin over 4 bills. Ho, ho, ho...

Shop around if you decide to order a pair of them. I have a pair that I got for $250 for off of Ebay last year and they were new in the box. For that price they are fine. They are my truck binos and do an okay job checking cows and stuff like that.
