Tha Maven B1.2 binos are fantastic for the price. They are a nice lightweight set of binoculars that also have great glass. I used the C series binos for several years before upgrading and I am glad I did. The C series (8x42 and 10x42) are still a fantastic binocular that I was very impressed with and so were others that looked through them. However, the B1.2s are on another level. I have the 8x42 model and they have a terrific field of view and gather lots of light.
There isn't much I don't like about them. If I had to pick one thing it'd be that the glass isn't crystal clear all the way to the edges. However, I find that the large field of view makes up for this. I've spotted bears at near a mile and deer close to that. I use them for deer, black bear, and elk hunting.
