whitetailtrax Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Re: binoculars Like everything, you get what you pay for. I would stay away from the low end junk, but realize that not many including myself can go with top of the line. Nikon, Burris, and Leupold all make good mid-range binos as well as some other companies. I use 8x42 Wind River binos - they are made by Leupold but are a little less expensive. I don't care too much for 10x binoculars because I can't hold them still. I've found field of view and light gathering is lacking in many compact binos - so I go with a "full size" set. These are just some of my thoughts and opinions for what it's worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaskBucks Posted January 1, 2006 Report Share Posted January 1, 2006 Re: binoculars I would buck up and pay for a good set that will last you forever...I went with Pentax, I really like them...there are a lot of other good brands too...Alpen, Leupold, Nikon etc. do your homework...make sure you get some that are phase coated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETMGROW Posted January 2, 2006 Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 Re: binoculars If you would like a good value check out the Simmons Atec line. They perform well but don't require you to obtain a second mortgage to buy them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
