[QUOTE="Garycrow, post: 1171648, member: 30743"] For $1000 I'd be looking at some sort of used Alpha's. Used swarovksi's, Kahles, Leica's and Zeiss can be found in that range. Meopta Meostar HD 10x42's go for around $1200 but if you catch a sale you can get them under $1K. The cabela's instinct euro HD's are the same binocular and you can often find a cabela's sale to get them under that range. To be honest, I wouldn't spend that kind of money on vortex, pentax, or nikon. Even if they were as good as the alphas the resale value on them is a lot less. Buy a used pair of swarovski's for $1K and five years from now you'll be able to sell them for what you paid. You're not going to do that with vortex. [/QUOTE]
