Pentax 9 x 28mm DCF LV
I am helping a friend find a light weight, compact waterproof binoculars in the $150 range, that delivers reasonable quality, for beginner bird watching and general use including hiking.
I am seeing the Pentax 9 x 28mm DCF LV, binocular (which I own) for as low as $157 on various sites. Like all bins its not without faults – but I noticed none that were bad enough to prevent me from buying it again. I use them in the back yard and viewing the feeder. I do take them on some birding walks and kayaking when I dont want to risk the more expensive glass.
In this unusual economic situation I still find this to be a good binocular at that price. It wont hold back a beginner to intermediate birder. Could be worth a look if your searching in this niche for a compact lightweight waterproof binocular with reasonable quality.
