Comments about Pentax Pentax 16 x 25 UCF-X II, Weather Resistant Porro Prism Binocular with 3.1 Degree Angle of View, Limited Lifetime USA Warranty.:
I was looking for something other than a monocular, but still compact and lightweight, with relatively high magnification and these fit the bill nicely.
Well made for the price, and the metal tripod socket is a nice addition. These binoculars go really well on top of a lightweight tripod for shake free viewing. Be sure to get the Pentax Binocular to Tripod Adapter U which allows for tripod mounting and gives the binoculars more clearance above the tripod head.
Slightly dimmer view is a trade-off due to small 25mm objectives and higher magnification.
