I personally own a lot of Binoculars and like to try everything worth trying including generic brands to see best bang for your buck. Most of them are extremely crappy though that I returned for refund from places such as Amazon and Walmart online who have the easiest FREE return policies but few of them are incredible, unbelievable actually for really dirt cheap too.
I own the 8x42 and 12x50 Athlon Midas and 10x42 Cronus and 10x50 Cronus Rangefinder Binoculars and my eyes simply don't like the Cronus UHD Gen 2 10x42s makes me dizzy and nauseous looking through them probably due to their field flatteners. The 10x50 Cronus Rangefinder Binoculars 10x50s optics on the other hand are great and don't make me feel sick.
The Midas 8x42 I don't like to me they don't have any wow factor to my eyes while the 12x50 version is one I really like with wow factor. It's almost as clear as my cheap $50 ScoopX UHD 10x42 I bought used with extreme wow factor way better than the Cronus UHD Gen 2 10x42 according to my own eyes and doesn't make me feel sick looking through them and they also have field flatteners so if you want to try one there only $55-$65 on eBay while Amazon sells them for $249 or $224 whenever they go on sale. You'd need to spend at least 10x to 12x on at least a Zeiss Conquest HD in order to edge out the ScoopX UHD.
I bet if you order one of each ScoopX UHD $65 on eBay and $400 Athlon Cronus 10x42 UHD Gen 2 and $300 Midas 10x42 UHD Gen 2 you'll definitely returning both Athlons after comparing them side by side with the ScoopX UHD. Regardless of huge price difference between all of them based on sheer edge to edge image clarity and lighter weight.
You can actually buy 4 of them for $220 with quantity discount from one seller on eBay. They're way better than their relatively low price depicts. Clearer than Vortex Viper HDs, Nikon Monarch M7 and 7, Leupold BX2, almost neck and neck with BX4, need to spend more than $600-700+ to edge these out.
If you're set on buying Athlon brand then I'd recommend the Midas G2 UHD 10x50 or better yet the 12x50 plus a ScoopX UHD 10x42 from eBay.
I'm not affiliated with this brand nor sellers nor any other brand for that matter. I buy everything with my own hard earned money just like everyone else and have never gotten a freebie to post a favorable review on.
