Athlon Midas G2 or Zeiss Terra binoculars. Any qualitative difference in basic 8x size.

My experience of Zeiss Terra anything is [bleep]

I don’t understand why Athlon couldn’t contract with LOW or someone similar to manufacture their design, especially at the price point they’re selling for.
Why the fugk anyone goes to China to have their products made blows my mind.
I know, I know….my phone, my computer blah, blah, blah…..

Agree 100%


It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

It all depends on what the price point is. Zeiss does the same thing.

ChiComs want to sell their products and the USA is the biggest optics market.

You might have the cart in front of the horse.

Maybe China comes here to sell their products.

I have some Athlon Midas binos, and we use the Terras at work. Very similar IMO.
