Recommendation for compact binocular?
boneaddict:
I am so old school it is scary. I use the big 10x50 Bushnells that cost about $50. There is nothing compact about them, but I'm the size of a house. I wear glasses now, so that really helps with that. Then last year when I took my girls shedding and was helping them into the truck I set them on the bed and drove off and dumped them on the road somewhere(the binos, not the girls, or my wife REALLY would have been pissed). That was sure nice buying a new pair @ $50 instead of those $1200 Swarovskys that I want. The year before that I was packing a buck out of the pasayten and my binos got put in the pack and the mule took them out on a pine tree on the way home. Dang, that was another $50. Sooooooo...until I grow up, I will use lieca glass in my camera, and keep carrying thes hawg glasses around. ::)

I use the same $50 bushnells...work well with glasses. i think they work fine for me.

The glasses I look through more than any others are my old 7X50 Bausch & Lomb "Bureau of Ships" Navy watch glasses. They live in my barn/workshop at are used to watch the coyotes and other critters out my shop window. They're the ones that ride around in my veihicles and see more daily than any others I've owned. Good glasses too. $30.00 at a gun show years back.

I have Barska $19.99 Not sure I recommend it but it's cheapo.

Cost-co has some decent compact binos for a reasonable cost. Again, I think they are bushnells of some sort. I bought three, one for each daughter to get them interested. I'm not sure if they ever see anything or not.
