I came on this site years ago looking for some good binoculars and the info I found here steered me to a few:
Nikon SE 8x32 - (last model using lead in glass) used as main glass to view deer & birds from home.
Celestron Outland LX 8x32 - nice compact glass I keep in car to view grandkids sports games and occasional deer, turkey and hawk we see on our travels.
Celestron Regal LX 10x42 - Used as home backup glass when the Nikon is used by someone else.
We got the Celestron Outland LX 8x32 as they quit making them and found it as a closeout for $40. After we received the Outland LX we liked it so much I searched for another and as of yet have not found another for less than $80. Years later I still have not found another Celestron Outland LX 8x32 and have a poor quality 8x20 in our second car. Now I'm back looking for advice for another roof prizm 8x30.
