Guys
Spent a good 2 hours checking out all sorts of binos today, from low end to high end.... and after some consideration I have made my choice!!!
Although the big names were definitely better, and I can afford them, the chances are that they will get damaged so thinking its not a great idea.
After looking, I think I have decided on the Newer Bushnell lengend HD bino's. They were surprising better than I expected. Now, I have a few choices here....
10X42
8X42, &
10X36.
Ultimately the 8X42 offer the best of both words, great field of view and exit pupil, but and this is where I am unsure, maybe going to the 10X would be better suited.
It will be used for hunting whilst walking, no tripods etc, looking for game out to around the 700yd mark. As for the game I will be looking for, the smallest would be fox sized but then the reality is, being used on fox sized game will be such a small percentage of the use.
So, 8X or 10X? I do think the 8X will serve my needs, not as shaky, but will I want that extra magnification once I get the 8X?
Cheers
