Cheers in advance.

Hi Marcus, just googled binoculars.com and it came up with "scopes'n'skies" who are selling a 10x50 roof prism by Bresser for less than £84! it looks really good but it can't perform for that kind of money, can it?

I've done 2 deals with Sherwoods, here:

Service was very speedy and the price the lowest I could find. I'll use them again when I buy my next bins for sure.

Yet another vote for Sherwoods. Excellent prices, range and service. They answered my emails and you can get sound advice on the phone.
