Hello everybody,
I've been recently asked this question by a friend, and had no answer :-C
It's quite embarassing asking something so generic here, but I'll try to provide more detail.
1. Money is an issue - budget between 300-500€
2. Main usage is mountain walks (some birding) - so not too heavy, quite tough, not extreme magnification
3. I'm not familiar with beta-brands nor with recent models (after years I still use my old Swarovski 7x42 :t: ), but looking for something as bright and crisp as possibile within the budget limit
4. Bins could be bought online as well but in Europe - really doubt that local dealers store brands like Opticron or Vortex or the like, I should check ...
What would you suggest (based on your experience)?
Thank you very much,
Max
