Mavin B.2

Anybody using the Mavin B.2's?? Specifically the 11x45 model. Compared to other brands your thoughts?

I have this exact model. They are my go-to binos. They are on the heavier side, I do a lot of glassing from a tripod, but very comparable to other high-end brands and awesome customer service.

Awesome binos. I ran the 9x45 for 6 years. Never thought " I wish these were better". I did eventually move to Swarovski EL 8.5x42 which are better, but so close to each other that it surprised me.

For the 11x45, they were way too much for me to hold without a tripod. But I had 3 buddies run them for years. Only thing I would call out on the 11x45 is that they depth of field was a touch touchy. Meaning, we had to fiddle with the focus more often moving to varying distances etc. The 9x45 didn't have that issue from my experience. But once the focus was set on the 11s, the view was outstanding.

Best of luck.
