I'm relatively new at birding. I wanted a new pair of bino's that would be a little bit of an upgrade(without paying 1000+ dollars) and ended up getting a $300 pair of swift929G 8x42 roof prisms. They give a real nice view if you are looking for birds hiding in bushes(6.6 close focus) and a pretty good view if you are looking at a bird just sitting up in a tree at a distance. The problem i have however is when i am scanning a line of trees in the distance there is a real wavy/curvy effect that i don't like. Are there other binoculars that don't do this? Why is this happening? I would appreciate some input-Thanks-Larry from CT. U.S.A.
