Fluorite glass is man made glass. Its hard to make and therefore very expensive. It reduces chromatic aberration to virtually zero. I have a Kowa spotting scope with this glass and its pretty incredible. Can you speak more about the low light performance in general and the edge to edge clarity vs the Swaro or anything else you can compare it too? Thanks

Thanks for the info on the glass! I believe the B5's fall in somewhere between my old Vortex Razor UHDs and the Swaros in low light. To be fair I'd be comparing 18s to 15s in the Razor's case, so not really apples to apples in light transmission, but I was still really impressed with these Maven's across all ranges. So much so that my new pair should be here in two weeks lol. To me, Swaros will always be the gold standard though, its just if you can swing them in the budget!

Thanks....

Anything for you

How do they compare to the $599 MSRP Bushnell Forge 15x56 binoculars?

In the spirit of honesty I have not gotten my hands on the Bushnell forge. What I have heard from those who have seen them are the a sweet little budget bino in the world of big glass. I don't believe they'll stack up to this model of mavens but probably don't overlook them if you are looking to save a bit of money. The athlon cronus g2 are another one to look at around that range!

good video, just found your channel. Gave you a sub.

Thanks man, we appreciate it!

I’ll take the maven’s over swaro slc’s every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

Man I wish I had your eyes. The swaros edge the mavens just slightly for my eyes but no where near enough to ever justify the price.

@@DeerandDonuts it takes the EL's to edge out the maven's for me, and that's only very slightly. The NL Pures are on a whole other level, but are cost prohibitive for a lot of people including me. LOL

Well if there's that many little things wrong with them they ain't that I end probably worth about a thousand

No product is perfect but to each their own

Obviously you are a Vortex sales guy. These Mavens are fantastic, I can find faults with your Razors as well.

Not sure which video you watched, but these were rated higher on my scale than the razors. Neither bino is perfect though. -Matt

That's what you keep saying about these binoculars? Nothing's perfect so why would you want to pay a lot of money for something that ain't perfect then so even you are distant on your own product🤣😅🤣🤣 By saying they ain't perfect. 😅🤣
