Review: These are a great pair of binoculars! I’d been having trouble finding much in the way of reviews of these. So I felt like I was taking a bit of chance buying them. I’m very glad I took the chance. After doing as much research as I could pre-purchase I concluded that these Athlon Midas binoculars were the equivalent, at least on paper, of other considerably more expensive binoculars such as Vortex Viper HDs. I also concluded that even though these Athlon Midas’ are listed as the number three tier binocular in Athlon’s lineup (Athlon Cronus is the top tier followed by Athlon Ares) that in every way that really mattered to me (BAK4 roof prisms, phase shift corrected, ED glass) these Athlon Midas’ would provide the same practical performance as the more expensive top tier Athlon Cronus. All of this and finding a pair of Athlon Midas binoculars at the bargain price of $225, along with just a couple of favorable reviews, and noting the lifetime warranty, encouraged me to take the leap. Once in hand the Athlon Midas’ binoculars appear to be very well built and rugged. I checked for common binocular issues, such as collimation, and found no problems. I did some experimenting looking at trees and house roofs down the street from me on a snowy day both at midday and later as dusk set in. I could not detect the presence of any chromatic abberation (which I would expect to show up when there is snow as part of the image). So all good there. I only have a rather cheap pair of binoculars to compare these too, but the difference with the Athlon Midas binoculars is striking. They are very bright and clear. The resolution of the image is very sharp. Color reproduction seems excellent. No evidence of the contrast washing out as happens with cheaper binoculars. All in all these binoculars seem to be a spectacular bargain. Athlon seems to be an up and coming company in the optics world. They make rifle scopes, spotting scopes, and rangefinders in addition to binoculars. Given my excellent experience with these Athlon Midas binoculars so far, I’ll be looking at Athlon real hard for future optics purchases.
Review: Came recommended by the New York Times and they are worth their weight. My 10x42s are much much better quality than the previous Miranda 10x50s and are smaller and lighter as well. Worth the money !

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are they made in China?**
A: I'm not sure but they are of excellent quality. I'm happy with my purchase.

**Q: What is the advantage of this over athlon 113004 midas 8 x 42 ed binocular ?**
A: This will give you all the same features and identical clear sharp image to 8x42 with more magnification ( trade off is you will have less field of view comparing with 8x42).

**Q: Whats the difference between 10 and 8?**
A: I have both the 10 power and 8 power binoculars. While in the 10 power the image is a little bigger the 8 power offers the sharper image at least to my old eyes. And of course the 10 power has a smaller filed of view than the 8 as well. I occasionally get some color fringing with the 10 power that I do not get with the 8. So while the 10 power is 9 out of 10 the 8 power is a solid 10 out of 10 for me.

**Q: What are the dimensions of this product**
A: LxW 5.7"x5.2"

The 8x42 were excellent, however after receiving two pairs of 10x42 both with defective focus knobs I gave up and returned them.
