Nikon Monarch ATB 8x42's
Well I had to get myself a pair of binoculars that would be legal for theIBO events I am shooting in this year. My old ones were 7-15x adjustable......IBO only allows you to have fixed power of 8.5 or less. I read a lot of reviews, and looked through a lot of pairs of binocs before I decided on these. I was looking at $250 or less for these.....the two main brands and models I was looking at were the Leupold Wind River Cascade 8x42's, and these Nikon Monarch ATB 8x42's. I think they were of the same quality......both excellent glass for the price. I happened to come across a smoking deal on the Nikon's so that is what I got. I ended up paying $237 shipped to my door for these.
If you are looking for a pair of binocs for 3D specifically.......give these a look before you decide. I recommend them. At 8 power, I am picking up more lines than I was w/ 15 power on my other pair of cheapo bushnells.
