Fujinon FMT-SX 7x50
I looked through every decent pair of binoculars I could find in Houston before buying the Fuji's. They are the brightest around. Stars in the center 50-75% of the field focus to the smallest pinpoints I've ever seen. The outside 25% isn't quite as sharp but not really bad at all. The only negative I've found is their size, quite a bit larger than most other 7x50's. If your not going to mount them you might want to actualy handle a pair before buying. Occassionally I notice a bit of color fringing on bright objects when I'm slightly off axis but it disappears when I get my eyes lined up on center. Bottom line, I've owned my Fuji 7x50's for several years now and everytime I take them out, I'm glad I bought them.

De Facto standard that I use to compare similar units. Diopter adjustments could have been a bit larger--if possible. My favourite instrument when using binoculars.

I'm glad I spent the extra money. I'll have these for a lifetime. Bright, clear, and flawless. All other 7x50 pale in comparison (Nikon, Steiner, even Zeiss).
