Excellent glasses for around $230.

Currently using a pair of Zeiss 10x40 Classic's and a pair Swarovski SLC 10x42's. Both are great sets of glass.

Like stubblejumper, I usually grab the Zeiss....... they have taken a beating though my travels and been with me for longtime never letting me down.

My binos all are German
My 8x32's are Eschenbach Sektor D 8x32
My mid sized are Optolyth Alpin 10x50 with the ceralin coating
My big ones are Docter Optik Nobilem 15x60.

All are good glass. The Eschenbach and optolyth have good eye relief aloowing me to use them with my glasses on. The Docters require me to take my glasses off.

Wind River by Leupold. 8x25

Best $80 I've spent on hunting yet! They're low powered, but amazingly crisp and clear in the woods. Let in lots of light too!

LOVE 'EM!!!!!!!!!! [8D]

Man I tell you what, I use $15 Wal-Mart tascos. And I'm not ashamed to admit it even though I'm the kind of guy who knows there's simply no subsitute for quality. The thing is, those cheapos do what I need 'em to...and since I'm in college and don't live out west where a good pair of glasses is essential I can't justify spending 10X that price for something that will "do it better" when I already have something that will "do it good enough".
