After much consideration between the Leupy katmai or the Pinnale, I have decided on something I consider better for the dollar and an upgrade at the same time!!...Thinking
 
Now off the Sample List, but confirmed as on hand inventory, I bought earlier today, the NIB (dark green) 8X32 Pentax DCF SP @ $398, which normally sells for $548.Naughty.... As of now, it is still posted there along with the pics. I`m surprised that no one else jumped on this one earlier.
 
As the pic shows, it has a nice case, eyecups, objective lens covers and a nice strap which are included.
 
When that sold sign gets posted, you`ll know who got it! Hope I didn`t disappoint anyone who really wanted it, but hesitated.
 
In reading the many reviews and searching comparisons on other sites, this binoc is a moderate step up from the Katmai and a little smaller step up from the Pinnacle....For $398, a very good deal imo!Yippee

................Based on all the reviews I`ve read on these binocs, my review should be an excellent one like everyone else`s. They should be in the same class as the Vortex Vipers, perhaps better and maybe within a fraction of the Razors..................Since the price was $548 and is now $582, should be a good indicator as to the quality of these binocs. Being NIB, I couldn`t pass it up for the $398 price.
