[117 x 4 x 4"] Very good quality, heavy weight and easy to remove wrinkles on with a drapery steamer. What we received did not match the color displayed here, nonetheless, it is a great color. It is more green than earthtone as shown here, however if you go on the savage website it shows the correct green hue. Bottom line is the color is great for professional headshots and small group settings and we love it. Only complaint we had was the item was approximately 10x10... meaning we had to shear and hem 3 sides of it to get it to fit our 10x10 square stage. Apparently whoever cut and sewed the edges on this must have been high on something as the original edges were very wavy and it did not hang right. Overall, we recommend this product, for the $$ you can not beat it!

[Spot Clean] Purchased this muslin backdrop for my studio to give me a bright blue background. This cloth matches the color I expected. It has the appearance of sky and provides a good production with studio lights. The cloth is well constructed and thick enough to prevent light penetration when it is placed over other backdrops. As with all muslin backdrops I use a handheld steamer to remove wrinkles. The background is popular with my clients for portraits.

[1] The thickness is good for this price, and the painted fabric feels expensive. A few wrinkles but they remove with a little steam work. A very rich and pleasing background. Very happy, going to pick up another 1-2 of these.

[Spot Clean] I know the price scares you but we have taken these type of field glasses to safaris in Africa over 10 times. When we let the spotter and or driver use our glasses they ALL tell us they are the brightest and clearest they have ever used. 

So a little heavy but well worth it when you need it.

[Spot Clean] Quite impressed, especially with the $350 discount B&H offered recently. These replaced my Trinovid BA 8x32s which served well for 18 years. Not a fair comparison, but the most striking improvement is the radical edge to edge sharpness. The center image is a slight but clear improvement over the classic trinovids, but this sharpness holds all the way to the edge of the view! Amazing. Focus is extremely fast and snappy, with excellent depth of field- less focus hunting than any other bino I’ve used. Great ergonomics, excellent lens caps, and a top shelf case and strap that you’d be happy to pay extra for if they weren’t included.

Using side by side with the trinovids, looking towards the sun, the glare control really stands out - not even a hint of glare in situations where the trinovids were unusable. Not sure how they do this, but the results are incredible - opening up a variety of angles you previously could not dream of viewing.

Since I haven’t used any of the other current generation alpha binoculars, I can’t speak to a comparison, but at this price, and with Leica’s warranty and service, it’s hard to imagine a better tool.

[Mottled Green] This background was perfect for what I needed to accomplish. While there was some color variation, it was not significant enough to pose any issues. The client was very happy with the way things turned out and that is what matters most. B&H was fantastic to deal with on the purchase and the rush shipment. When Savage messed up the initial order, B&H resolved matters for me quickly and efficiently. I'm very pleased with everything.

[Crossbar] Although this backdrop is not what I was looking for, I did like its quality of heavy texture and am sure that if I am searching in this venue at a future date, it would be a valuable purchase.

[117 x 4 x 4"] Have been a Leica owner for 15 years and these are hands down the best binoculars I have ever used. They are more comfortable to hold,
lighter, closer focusing and, most importantly, the view is incredible. Everyone who has looked through them has had a 'wow' or 'oh my gosh' moment. They are bright, sharp edge to edge, and have a great depth of field (almost 3 dimensional, which is very unusual in a roof prism binocular). I absolutely love and recommend them to anyone ready to step up to a premium (alpha) binocular.

[117 x 4 x 4"] After using 8x32 Trinovids for 18 years, I decided it was time for a change. I tried the Svarowski 8.5 x 42 but found them too clunky and didn't like the green color. I also tried the Leica Ultravid 8x42 HD plus and liked them. Then enter the 8x42 Noctivid! Coming from 8x32's, any 8x42 would look brighter, but these Noctivids blew me away. Crisp, sharp, bright and beautiful! I was very worried about the weight, the 8x32 are so light and I have some neck and shoulder issues. But the Noctivids are so well balanced that it took me minutes to get used to them. Btw the case it comes in is beautiful. I would highly recommend these.

[Spot Clean] Even though I was expecting a more dark brown, it looks more charcoal to me, which is fine because I love it regardless! Great pattern, great quality/thickness, and photographs great! The reverse side has ended up with a neat light gray-ish pattern to it as well, so even though I haven't tried it on the reverse side yet, I'm pretty sure I got two 'drops in one with this purchase. I love it.
