Review: Excellent
Review: Mejor de lo esperado - Venia de unos Celestron Nature DX 8x42, que me encantan, y estos los mejoran bastante. Ha merecido la pena, sobretodo por la sensación cada vez que miras por ellos. Seguramente con los anteriores podía distinguir casi lo mismo que con estos, estos son más luminosos y se ve mejor en situaciones de alto contraste, pero la experiencia con estos marca la diferencia (además de ese dos o tres por ciento de identificaciones que antes no lograba). Ambos me encantan, pero con estos disfruto más. Saludos.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How do the Vortex diamondback 8x42 bins compare to the Vortex crossfire?  which is heavier?**
A: Sorry I am not familiar with the Crossfire version.... The Diamondback's are much lighter though than a pair of similar Leitz binocs that I have

**Q: Does anybody have any experience with these vs the non-HD version?**
A: http://www.birdwatching.com/optics/2019_Diamondback-HD/review.html

**Q: are the prisms bak4? I do not see it in the description**
A: Yes. In the HD version.

**Q: What's the difference between the Diamondback and the Viper binoculars?**
A: I have both - an 8x32 diamondback HD and the 8x42 Viper HD. The Vipers are simply amazing - the clarity and brightness are sensational for birding. The diamondbacks are very close and like them as a go to for walks because they are lighter and fit into a pocket. However, they have a smaller field. It really depends on your needs.
