I have a pair of Pentax 8 x 42 DCF WP. In my opinion they are the best value high end bino's out there right now. Awesome optics, fully waterproof, tough (magnesium frame with full rubber armor) lightweight and well built with a lifetime warranty. Unless you want to lay down over $700, I dont think you'll find many better pairs.
I got mine from etronics.com for $324 and they had a $100 mail in rebate on top of that, which came back in a couple of weeks no problem. Shop around there are some bargains although they are selling fast right now.
