    Has anyone looked through the maven C series glass?
    i think these might be my next Binos, but not sure how they compare to others in the price range.
    They have good reviews from what I’ve read

    X2 for the Nikon monarch 5 at London drugs. Nice to hold, nice glass, on the small side and fits small Bino Bivy like Sitka 10-42 is what I have

    My young son recently got a pair of monarch 5’s on sale for $390- excellent binos.
    When in doubt, just pin it.

    The monarch 5's are hard to beat, decent clarity.. I have a set of vortex and the monarch's are better at low light for me.
    A bad day in the bush beats just about anything...

    yeah, but which vortex? If you got a vortex diamondback set, then yeah, it makes sense. if you got Vortex Vipers then I would question whether Monarch 5s were better.

    Yes the bino's are diamondbacks.. also have the viper spotter and rifle scope and no I'm not trying to compare them to the bino's, all I'm saying is for me.. the monarch's are great at low light... just an opinion.
