I have someone coming over next month from the UK, and want to get a pair of compact (8-10power, 25-28mag) binos.
Was looking at the
(1) Zeiss BGAT PQRSTUV 10x25s or whatever the heck it is that they are called (not the Victory series, but the ones a bit cheaper than that)
(2) Opticron DBA Oasis
(3) Opticron BGA T PC (seriously.. who in marketing thought that this is a good way to name the models??)
2 questions:
1/ Anyone compared the Opticrons to the Zeiss bins or have any comments on how they compare?
2/ Anyone know of a relatively cheap source in the UK? It hurts me to see those prices and compare them to the US prices - but as I am traveling for a while, I cannot deal with the customs and paperwork involved with mail ordering directly to my home. So a UK purchase it has to be.
Am ok with used as well, actually. These binos are going to get some rough usage, so second hand will actually be better. If you are selling a pair....
Cheers,
Vandit
