This is one of the best mid-priced full-size binoculars we've seen in several years, and at 23 ounces, we expect it will set the standard for back-country hunters who need a powerful glass in a trim design. The sleek open-bridge frame shaves weight but doesn't compromise optical performance. While not a front-runner on the resolution range, the Mojave placed second in our low-light test.

TESTERS' COMMENTS: Wonderful clarity at distance; Quite compact for a full-size bino; A good, solidly built binocular; Great ergonomics; Lockable diopter is a nice feature; Slight yellowish cast; Mid-priced gem.
