Hi. I am new to BirdForum. I am a casual bird watcher on Califonia's north coast (in the redwoods with ocean 1/2- mile away) near Mendocino and on the southwest coast of Mexico.
My old Orion binoculars disappeared. Like many other, I am very frustrated by Internet info on new ones.
Instead of asking your opinions about specific models, I would like people who bought binoculars in 2004 who are very happy or sad about the models they bought to report the models, price (optional), and reasons for positive or negative. My main specs are simple: near focus 2m or less; list price under $300 with discounts to under $200; and, really good images. Thanks.
