by Michael and Diane Porter
This is one of the binoculars of note from the 2007 Midpriced Binoculars Round Up.
Eagle Optics Ranger SRT
We rated the Eagle Optics Ranger SRT a best buy. The 8x42 has a street price of $299.95. It has excellent eye relief (19.5mm) for glasses wearers, very close focus (5.2 ft.), and twist-up eyecups with good detents.
The binocular feels good in the hand. And we found its focus knob flawlessly smooth and free from slack.
We call this binocular a best buy at its $299.95 street price. It has excellent eye relief (19.5mm) for glasses wearers, very close focus (5.2 ft.), and twist-up eyecups with good detents.
