Rainier is as good as it gets!

Rating:*****
I purchased my Rainiers this past year and at [$] I wanted to be sure the quality was great. So I compared to Swarovski's and Zeiss' that sell for almost three times as much and could not see any difference in optical quality. I am really glad I chose the Rainiers and use them for bird watching primarily. I also deer hunt and they are just fantastic in the early morning and late afternoon low light times of day. I would recommend the Rainier's to anyone thinking about buying a high priced European brand. They are great.
