New binos advice
jdb:
I'm thinking of upgrading my binos this coming year. I have a decent pair of leupold but I think I'm ready for an upgrade. I'm traditionally a leupold guy but I can't get over the look of the new leupolds. I'm also not a fan of vortex. I have about $750 budget. I'm looking Nikon maybe? Oh and I want 10x42. Any helP?
Crunchy:
Zeiss an option? Not sure what they are running on price. Might want to hold off and save. You wont gain much in optics for only a couple hundred more than what Leupolds cost.
Miles:
I really like my Minox binoculars. If you can find some local, I think it would be worth your while to check them out.
Regardless of what brand you decide, go to cameralandny.com for availability and pricing.

I have a pair of Nikon LX Premier 10x42 binoculars sitting around that I never use. At the time I purchased them I compared them to Swarovski and Leica models, and preferred the Nikons.
If you have any interest send me a PM. Bob

Save a couple hundred more bucks and get the zeiss conquest HD. Fantastic glass for the price. Great warranty also. They just replaced a scope of mine no questions asked with a better more expensive model. Might find them close to $800 if you shop sales :twocents:
