+1 to the "buy used" comments. Definitely makes your dollars stretch. Nikon and Zen Ray are they best in this price range IMHO.

I have a set of Carson 3d. Excellent glass for the money. Customer service is top notch too. Started with an older model Carson and upgraded to the 10x42 3d. So had carsons for about 7 or 8 years. Had eyecup troubles. They said they had an issue with them. But had a fix. Sent mine in. Had them back in less than 2 weeks.

I found out about Carson products when looking for new glass several years ago. They got great reviews on the birding forums.

I have a pair of Burris 12x50 signature select I'll sell you for that much.
This is a pretty good offer if you want 12X.

I would include Burris bino carrier too. I'm using FHF now.

Nikon Aculons are porros.
They should look better.

Well took the plunge tonight to replace the Bushnells I lost two years ago.
My wife came home with a friends and family coupon, plus my Cabelas points walked out with these for just under 300.00.

Another vote for the Diamondbacks by Vortex. Only pair I have ever had, but they are as good as I could ever ask for considering the price.
