I have an old pair of Porro Prism Steiners, but generally grab my Pentax roof prism binoculars for hunting purposes. Both have excellent glass and more than suit my needs...they are just constructed differently.
I bought the Pentax set about 15 yrs. ago and have not babied them. Very happy with the performance and how they've held up. I wouldn't consider either 'outdated'.
Another “outdated” Pentax user here.
Got them in 2000 for an elk hunting trip.
I spent hours on end glassing that trip and the Pentax’s made that a pleasurable experience.
Awesome glass. I still love them and have no plans of replacing them.
