I too have a pair of Ace Avian F 8 x 42. I have compared them to pair of expensive similar spec Leica's (Trinovid BN iirc) and a pair of Swarovski EL 8.5 x 42 and there was nothing in it in repect of optical quality. The Ace Avian F 8 X 42 is a top quality bargain. I compared them with the Swarovski's in a retailers and the guy in the shop had a look at the Avians and agreed they were top quality for a very reasonable price.
