Never ceases to amaze me ..People will spend 600-1000 dollars for a good factory rifle and always skimp on scopes and binos. Just amazing.

Cheap binoculars are totally worthless! Save up, if necessary, and buy something in the quality class of a Leitz, Leica, Zeiss, etc. They'll last you a lifetime, and you'll be able to see stuff your buddies won't!!

Keep yore powder dry!!

I broke down many years ago and bought a pair of 10x40 ziess and have never regretted it.I can glass for several hours at a time with no eyestrain compared to minutes with cheap optics.You will never appreciate how usefull binoculars are until you use a good pair.Go with ziess,swarovski or leica and you will never have to buy another pair.

Buy the best you can aford... or (or want to spend) i can understand that.My money is relavent to me & good optics are nice. Have a half way(far from the best) decent slr camara, but i never payed $500 for a quality factory rifle either.. let alone 1000.00 for a scope or binos. think i will upgrade to some stiener binos at least for bouncing of the rocks while out . they didnt make the list here ? Bad stieners ?
My everyday,& hunting truck only cost 2k not 25 -30 grand tho too.
Anybody gut some junk stieners or otehr optics, or trucks etc over10- 20 yrs old they dont want. let me know plz.:)
But i do believe yall about quailiy etc . SSometimes...<img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle> you do get what you pay for.

I do like to have (many) more then 1 of most things. &lt;'&gt;&lt;
