Not only do you get a pretty decent bino harness, but their "BinoArmor Deluxe" is really one of the best that I have ever used as I love the way it wraps itself around the bin. This has the effect of increasing light transmission to produce a brighter image and therefore better low light performance. They also produce a really bright and high quality image that is mostly down to the use of high quality glass elements and coatings in their construction. Inside this wrap around case there is a wide elastic strap that holds the case to the binoculars while viewing, or if you prefer you can simply remove the case completely from the binoculars by not using this strap.

This is a hard parameter to judge, but I thought that the contrast of the image produced was good to very good and once you have correctly focussed on an object the image is pin sharp. But right at the top of the Carson 3D Series is the 10x42mm TD-042ED model that also comes with ED Glass. The Carson VP Series 10x42 mm Compact Binocular - Black is a full size binocular featuring BAK-4 prisms and fully multi-coated optics for crisp and clear viewing.
