[QUOTE="Gene, post: 409652, member: 7402"] Well, I agree with the others. Old age and most all optics do not work well together. I used to carry a Bushnell 8x50 all the time. As I got older the weight of this binocular just about killed my neck. I decided to do something about it. I bought a small roof prisim, Leica 10x20. I still love it. Does not produce neck strain, and its easy to hold with one hand. The downside is that the small objectives make some diminished details difficult to see. But, at 700 yards, even a 50mm is not going to be crystal clear most of the time. From half hour before sunrise till half hour before sunset, a good mini binocular cannot be beat. PS - Buy a good one. I found that cheaper minis lose focus when they bounce around on your chest. My Leica does not. Gene [/QUOTE]
