    Pentax 10x42 DCS Binocular Experience

    Looking at buying these tonight and wondering if anyone has had experience with them.

    Replacing my old Leopolds that fogged on me so these are just a quick, relatively inexpensive replacement until I find a good deal on better ones...I'll be on the Island in the rain at least for the rest of this season.

    Just looking for any experience with Pentax...

    I don’t know about those binos, but you may be able to send the leupolds to korth for repair/warranty.

    I believe they are actually 10X43. I have had mine for a number of years. When I did my research, they rated extremely well for the money you spend.

    I have a pair of 10X42 DCFs that have served me very well. Went out of collimation once. Sent to Pentax and fixed for free. My binos were $900 new 25 years ago. AFAIK they are still the same glass but have come down in price a lot. I've upgraded since but the o'le Pentax now sit on the kitchen window sill for watching game in the back yard. Good value glass IMHO
