The 10x42 Premier roof prism binocular is a rebadged 10x42HG/LX_L. Compared to the world's absolute best roof prism glasses it is at least 40% cheaper, has practically 98% of their sharpness in the centre of the viewing field (FOV), is their equal for uniform sharpness across the entire FOV which, however, is narrower than the FOV in the others; it also has 97% of their brightness and contrast(percentage figures are purely indicative). The glasses are colour-neutral with a practically unnoticeable tinge in the whites, the overall effect is beneficial for seeing detail. The picture appears a little flat like an LCD screen but horizontals and verticals remain undistorted unlike in most binoculars. When panning the binoculars the image is like a rolling globe which becomes flat as soon as panning is stopped. This is a design feature, a side effect of the remarkable lack of distortion,and one that reduces in intensity with use. In high contrast lighting, purple and yellow chromatic aberration (CA) can be seen on the sharp edges of dark linear objects such as branches against an overcast sky, usually towards the edge of the FOV. CA detracts from sharpness but many users are insensitive to CA and changing the angle of ones eyes very slightly on the eyepiece may remove the CA. Eyeglass wearers will find it among the most comfortable of binoculars. The focussing wheel is the smoothest and fastest of any binocular, taking the shortest of turns to go from zero to infinity. Older users with declining eye accommodation may find that the speed of the focussing wheel encourages focus overshoot. The locking collar for diopter adjustment of the right eyepiece is an excellent design which does not go out of alignment. Build quality is not exceeded by any binocular. Only the porro type binoculars may impart a more stereoscopic quality to the view. There are very few porros produced any more and among the best are those by Nikon. The 10x42 Premier is strongly recommended, especially for those who demand the best at a non-stratospheric price. Especially good for spectacle wearers.
