  • Absolutely fantastic optical & build quality!
Size: 10X50
I am no stranger to quality glass and had decided to buy a pair of midrange 10x50’s for mixed-use, Astronomy & hunting/bird-watching. After a LOT of research and comparison I’d narrowed the choice to these and a similar pair from German Precision Optics and, to be honest, I chose the Mavens because I liked the orange ring. I’ve been astonished at how well they’ve performed. Optical quality is on-par with optics costing twice as much and the polycarbonate body feels very sturdy and solid in-hand without being too heavy for extended viewing. Contrast is excellent, detail is fantastic across the board, slight chromatic aberration at the edges, but that’s not a huge deal. I was a little worried about the tight FOV but the clarity more than makes up for it. I’ll definitely buy Maven again. ... show more

  • Worth every penny
Size: 10X50
After reading and watching every review I could find on these binoculars, I finally pulled the trigger on the C.3 10x50. Vortex was the only other I looked at in this price range and the equal is a little more money. Maven either sells them on their web site or here, and that saves the middle man. Bass Pro and such have to make a profit so the price comes up. No you can't try them out in the store but you can do a loaner program on their site, sort of "Try before you buy". Bottom line is great quality build, and I have the lower end model but feel like it's the top end. All quality materials used. The vision is stellar and so crisp. I would have popped for the B series but I just use them for target/3d, not hunting. Great company, give them a try. ... show more

  • Extreme Clarity View Worth the Extra Weight
Size: 12X50
I did my research on all types of binoculars before making this pricy purchase. I was not disappointed. The extreme clarity is outstanding. I have only used them once since I purchased them at archery 3-D animal event and it was really nice to make out the scoring rings from 13 yards to as much as 70 yards on the targets. It was also nice to see were the arrow went into the target. They are not as light as my Nikon Pro 12X50, but worth the extra weight for the clarity. I purchased the hard case for storage, and purchase a breaded lanyard for archery. Recommend supporting privately owned business in the USA. ... show more

  • Very good, but not great
Size: 10X50
There are many things to like about these Maven 10x50's- excellent build quality, nice rubber armor, and good quality image for near to mid distance objects. The Mavens however fall short in long distance viewing- they just cannot resolve the image to my satisfaction. In addition, they have a field of view which is just too narrow and restrictive. Both of these were deal breakers for me. In addition, I am not a fan of the included soft cloth pouch- Maven should have included a case instead- even a simple one would provide more protection. Overall, a very nice set of binoculars which may be just fine in some situations. Their performance probably lines up with their mid-price, but they fall short of being excellent. I was hoping for more. UPDATE (5/26/23): I ended up purchasing the Maven B2 11x45's- these are much more costly, but vastly superior to the C3 series. Highly recommend the B2's instead of these. ... show more

  • Very nice quality. Very impressed.
Size: 10X50
I bought these for western deer and elk hunting and had a pair Vortex Diamondbacks, which were a good value for the money. I gave them to my son, who didn’t have any and bought the Maven C3 10X 50. I’m very impressed with the quality of the Mavens. Great image quality and light transmission. I’d say, one would be hard pressed to find a better pair in that price range. Many people compare them to units that cost 2,000 plus, but that’s maybe not a fair comparison. ... show more

  • Unreal
Size: 10X50
I was asking for advice from my hunter friends for binoculars. I was shocked when they cost $3500 for a "good Pair". I was already planning on returning these before they came. However I just opened the box to check them out, and WOW!!! I was, and am still blown away. The light, colors, and sharpness are truly amazing. I find myself just staring up into the mountains with these for 20 min at a time. I will NEVER look through a pair of "expensive" binos now because ignorance is bliss. Also very ergonomic and well designed. ... show more

  • Great Binoculars (I researched a lot)
Size: 10X50
I have been looking for a good general pair of binoculars for several months and eventually suffered from paralysis by analysis. In the end, I purchased the Maven C3 10X50 binoculars as part of the Black Friday deal. Let me just say, that I am not disappointed at all. I considered different brands and magnifications, but ultimately I wanted something to also gaze at the moon. Indeed, this model fits the bill for all aspects of what I wanted to use them for. The construction and quality of these binoculars are quite high. I really wanted something with good clarity and these do not disappoint. My eyes are aging, but I had no problem with the FOV or eye relief. I was quite impressed with the ease of use which was very important for me. Yes, gazing at the moon is quite impressive for general viewing. Obviously, a high magnification would be needed for in depth detail, but I wanted something that my shaky hands could still use. Great purchase and Maven binoculars do live up to all the hype. I may consider another pair in the future. ... show more
