I have two or three pair of cheap Bushnell and Tasco Binos. They may not be the high end stuff but after many years of rattleing around behind the seat and in the back of the jeep they are still working fine. I have looked through some really top grade Ger4man optics and while they are a little more clear, I can' t see anything through them that I can' t see through the Bushnells for 1/10 th the price. I just won' t pay more than 40 or 50 bucks for Binos I can' t see the difference. Of course I only have one eye so I could split a pair with someone.
