Ok, its April 2022 and I am shopping for some hunting binoculars. 8x isn't enough and I think 12x will be a little to jittery for me, so I am going with 10x. My budget is $1,000. (No, I am not spending $2k on Swarovski's)
I was looking hard at Zeiss Conquest or Leica Trinovid HD or Vortex Razor HD.
Then I stumbled upon some reviews of the Leupold BX-4 Pro Guide HD.
Everywhere I search the Leupold's at $600 are compared side by side with the $1k Bino's above and stand toe to toe. Of course, I am concerned what I have read is just "marketing" and would like some real, first-hand experience.
Thanks for your opinions.
By the way, I am buying local and paying cash. The four above are available locally.
