    Best of ay to choose a binocular - hold it, check the feel, check the suitibility for your face....and for thirty quid cheaper, a good buy.

    Zeiss Terra 8x32, Nikon M7 8x30s and Hawke Frontier and Endurance both 8x32 and the older 8x36. Have caused quite the stir amongst our group. I'll not be bothered to upgrade mine to anything else sub £1000.

    Thanks for the link. I'm having a pair if these are still about when I get paid.

    I have the Sightron Blue Sky 8x32. I cannot state the absolute sheer bloody delight these bins are to use. The view is staggeringly bright, sharp, CA free and tested against the endurance 8x32 beats it into the ground hands down.

    Let me elaborate a little about how good the Sightrons I have are. My hillwalking friend has the Nikon M7 8x30. A truly raved about binocular. My Sightrons will easily show greater detail at all distances, and with greater contrast and colours. They also are far better at glare control. Far...

    Yeah, the Porro from Opticron is what I'd go for at this price. Very light, bright clear view. Great for hiking bin.

    My friend has the 8x42, and they are a nice but larger sized bin. Good image, very robust, none of the worries on eye relief, build, image or diopter problems of the Hawke PC.

    Do NOT get the Hawke PHase Corrected. They are truly awful. I sent back 4 units, each with their own horrific set of woes. Quality of image was also very poor. A bin to avoid. The Savannah Porro from Opticron though is a great bin. Plenty sharp and crisp.
