Hello all
I´d like some advice re monoculars. I want something small enough to slip in a pouch, (so that rules out instruments like the Zen-Ray 8x42 mono etc) with the idea being that it is always to hand when I´m out and about on walking or photography trips etc, and don't have my bins or telescope with me. The obvious choice seems to be the Leica 8x20 Monovid, but it's a bit pricey for a something that won´t be used that regularly.
My second choice was the Zeiss 8x20 T* monocular. It´s quite a bit cheaper, but I´ve read some mixed reviews and so have been put off a bit from buying it. Some people reckon its great while others don´t rate it so highly. Does anyone here have one, and if so what is it like? Or does anyone have any other alternatives I should consider?
Thanks!
Gary
