[QUOTE="Swiftkill, post: 2036453, member: 104167"] I missed the $1000 part of your request. I have to say, Zeiss Conquests are soooo good. If you could look at them in Cabelas or Bass Pro, but don't buy there unless you want to waste your money paying their overhead. Truth be told Nikon Monarchs for I think less than $400 are so good you'd be hard pressed to see a difference. Also, I have an old pair of Pentax which are phenomenal. Pentax makes surprisingly good binoculars. Vortex seems to be hit or miss. Their cheap stuff is ....cheap. Their expensive stuff seems to be good. I have a mid line vortex scope which is decent. My friend has to sell their red dots and he says they don't hold up. Too bad Alpen is out of business. I have a lot of their optics and even their $150 shasta ridge binoculars are amazing. I use them for work. They've been bouncing around in my car for 8 or more years, left in 150 degree car whenever it was that hot (for many months in So Cal) for all those years and those binos are perfect, aligned, crystal clear.
