    Simply the best travel scope / spy optic in the price and size range.
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2017*

I own several monoculars, and this one is by far my favorite - It's a useful magnification range, and it's very fast and easy to use - and a sleek design on top of that.The eye relief at 13mm isn't fantastic, but I can still see ALMOST the entire field with my glasses on - which puts it in much better territory than many other monoculars I've used, especially those of the turmon/docter/miniscope design, which are the only that seem to be comparable in size.  The original turmon/docter may be the only high quality monocular in this size range, but good luck using that with glasses AT ALL, as eye relief is virtually nonexistent - and the Steiner Miniscope is still larger.  The comparable 6x18 zeiss is much larger and is no more sealed against the elements, at twice the price... This is probably the smallest monocular you can find that has a good balance of utility and ease of use.I'd stay away from the 8x - 6x is definitely the sweet spot for this design, as the 8x is darker and harder to hold stable, especially with a single hand. The 6x16 combo leaves an exit pupil that isn't too hard to line up, and it's easy to hold stable while still magnifying to a useful extent.  The "rectangular" view is a good balance of shaving off some weight/bulk while still presenting a very very usable image.Focus is super smooth, fast, and very easy - although it can take a delicate touch and a bit of practice to zero in that last bit of focus.The lanyard is a bit goofy in my opinion, but it's easy enough to remove - I keep this wrapped in a very thin and small microfiber for protection, and just toss it in a pocket.Seems to handle challenging lighting situations very well, and has a very good image quality for the price - You will have to spend twice as much to get higher quality, it's definitely the point where diminishing returns kick in.Literally my ONLY gripe is that it isn't nitrogen purged or similar, but that's something you will not find in this size and price point - You'd have to step up to a much larger or much more expensive monocular to get close to the size of this.  The only fogproof monocular I have is the Opticron Trailfinder, which also uses a sliding focus design - it's considerably larger, and much much more difficult to focus.  The only sealed monocular I can think of that would be near this size would be the Leica - Arguably the best monocular, period - unbeatable image quality and ALSO fogpoof.  It is also larger than this model.This is a great monocular with a great heritage, and it's often easy to find for lower than the advertised price.  Highly recommended.

    Good optics in a compact package
  

*by F***E on Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2012*

The 6 power by 16 mm lens combination provides a good balance between compact size, image magnification, and image brightness.  The optics are more than satisfactory for the price, providing almost non-existent color fringing and field distortion.  The carry pouch is adequate only, and I may go to a leather store for materials to custom-make my own case.The monocular has a sliding focusing mechanism.  However, the adjustments are coarse, even with minor movement of the slider.  So it's tricky, but possible, to obtain a clear focus.  But when you do so, the image is very nice, considering the size of the optics.

    very good but not perfect
  

*by P***Y on Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2012*

This is a very good monocular. Images are sharp and clear  with hardly any trouble with reflections. Focusing is precise, although a bit sensitive because of the limited depth of field. I was disappointed because the lanyard cannot be removed. All-in-all a very good monocular.
