Meopta/Cabela's 12x50 HD binoculars

[1899]

Have any of you bought or used the new 12x50 HD that is made by Meopta and also available as the Cabela's Instinct Euro HD 12x50?

Everyone raves about the Meopta 10x42HD so, since I am interested in higher magnification, I am hopeful that the new 12x (and 15x56) will also be excellent pieces of kit.

I have a set of 10x42HD, clarity is incredible. No distortion and abberation close to none.

I can look through them for hours and do not get eyes fatigue. Anything else of the same quality is well over $2000.

Yup, folks love the 10x42, that is for sure. I am wondering if the 12x50 lives up to the bar set by the "little" one.
