Winner of both the Editors Choice and Great Buy Awards from Outdoor Life Magazine! Its rare that a single product garners both the Great Buy and Editor's Choice honors but this year's (2008) remarkable entry from Pentax has world-class glass at a price point most sportsmen can afford. This hand-size marvel excelled in every category leading the way in resolution and low-light performance but also getting the highest marks in every one of the subjective considerations. The team especially liked the positive-locking three-position eyecups the bright crisp image and the pleasing ergonomics of the DCF LV. Its mid-range power and objective lens size are about right for a compact but it has the eye relief (18mm) and resolution of a full-size binocular. Its compact size and polycarbonate body make this a great choice when weight and mobility-along with value- are considerations.
