Hello all - already need advice
« on: March 02, 2016, 09:35:02 PM »
Good evening everyone,

first post so far. There is a lot of useful information on here that i assume to be genuine and sincere. ive seen no reason to assume otherwise. so, thanks in advance for any binocular recommendations:

a few things:

always owned cheap binoculars($50-$75), and im tired of them. fog, focus, clarity. last year they hurt more than helped.

looking in the $150-400 range.

know ZERO about binoculars.

recommendations, suggestions, experience appreciated.

thank

Welcome! you will find a lot of great information, experience and opinions here.

As for the binoculars and the price range Nikon Monarchs ATB 5's 8x42's would be my choice. They are great binoculars for the price and if ever needed a lifetime warranty.
