Good All-Around Binoculars

Gave Binoculars as a gift and they were a good versatile pair for first time owner. The only thing I would mention is that the case isn't good quality.

Quality and Performance at a fair price

I purchased this item for my daughter and granddaughter to do their bird watching and identifying. They told me that they were both impressed with the quality, focus, and clearity of the glass.

Lens cover falls off

I purchased these for the wife. She loves them with the exception that the objective lens cover continues to slid off. This is extremely irritating as you don't notice that the lens cover has fallen off until you are putting the binocs away. Then you have to look around to try to find the cover. Is there any way to secure the lens cover strap to the binocs?
