[QUOTE="ducky, post: 2222222, member: 94420"] What aren't you happy about? I had an old RB-800 binoculars from Leupold. Great concept one of the first range finding binoculars made, but they were poorly executed. I wasn't happy with them either and so I sold them for the Minox BL 10X42 that Doug at Camera Land suggested back when they first came out. The Minox were great but after 10+ years of service a prisim came loose in the left barrel. Minox said that I would have to pay for them to be repaired, so I planned on selling them when they came back. Minox didn't repair but replaced at no cost with their 10X44 X-HD models. From what I can tell, these are excellent binoculars in the $1-1.2K range. I looked at a bunch of binoculars when I thought I'd be replacing my Minox. I never got my hands on Meopta, but Vortex Razor and Leupold BX-5 were top picks in 10X binoculars for around $1K. If I were to step up to $2K plus binoculars Leica Geovids are the only way I'd go.
