One of the most hand-holdable, comfortable to use binoculars ever made, the EL 8.5x42 is a sight to behold.  With incredible clarity, a giant field of view, and perfect ergonomics this binocular needs to be at the top of the list for medium to close range glassing.  Perfect for archery hunts where the finest detail can make the difference between a shot and a blown stalk and very well suiting to tree stand hunting or sneaking through thick and brushy country, where bright, crisp images are essential to getting the job done.
