Hi there. I am looking for a little direction in purchasing my 1st pair of 'vintage' binoculars. I have always been a bit of an optics nut but am no collector. I've owned a # of relatively modern roofs and a few porros. For porros I currently own Nikon 8x30 8.3 degree and a B&L 8x36. I've never owned a 7 power and am looking for something classic in 7x50 or 7x35. I'll probably start with 7x35. with a bunch of reading I am leaning towards Tasco, Sears, Jason, or maybe Bushnell (banners?) with Sears Discoverers near the top of the list. Looking to keep the cost down, probably under 100$US but am expecting, or at least looking for a pleasing viewing experience!
Hoping to hear some recommendations.
I believe this is my 1st post, but I have been lurking here for several years.
