Review on Vortex Optics Razor Prism Binoculars by Chris Fields

I was looking for a new pair of binoculars suitable for everyday bird watching. The image quality of the Vortex Razor is simply outstanding. I'm in awe of the best view of ordinary species! I am particularly impressed by the minimal distortion when looking through the window pane. They're heavier than my old Eagle Ranger Platinum binoculars, but lighter than the Elite binoculars. I like the Vortex lens cap; it doesn't bother when not in use. I like the neck strap, but the Vortex harness system doesn't appeal to me. I still have to get used to the variable focus design. Very little movement of the focus knob is required in the most commonly used field of view. The focus knob works smoothly with a good average resistance.
