archermatt Report post Posted April 14, 2016 Has or does anyone have these binos? Mine are coming in the mail and was wondering if anyone had a opinion on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sneaker Report post Posted April 14, 2016 I have them, they have worked very well for me for two years now. I'm fine with not having the best. The value proposition for the good knockoffs is too high to ignore these days. If you can get 90% of the quality, which is what I feel I am getting, for literally 25% of the cost ($450/$1800), then I'm a buyer. The value would be equivalent to buying swaros for $500 (90% / $450)... I'll probably get some good comments on that, but as a business school guy, CPA ,and company president, I can't not think that way even when talking hunting costs... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
archermatt Report post Posted April 14, 2016 I had a set of the ED3's that broke and Zen-Ray took care of me and are upgrading me to the primes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
creed_az_88 Report post Posted April 14, 2016 I think that they are just slightly better optically than the ed3s. I've looked through them both side by side. I like the eye cups better on the ed3s though. It's noohing huge, but it is the one thing I noticed between the two. Really good glass. Same warranty as vortex. I personally prefer the clarity on the zen ray primes over vortex's top glass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
archermatt Report post Posted April 14, 2016 creed_az_88 would you compare them to the Vortex Vipers or Razors? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
creed_az_88 Report post Posted April 14, 2016 Razors although I have never looked though them side by side. Definitely better than the vipers in my opinion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
