She could manage it. What's the fov?
Black Crow,
Chuck's advice in post #77 is excellent and should be enough for you and your friend to go by. He owns and uses all of the models he talks about here, they are all premium, and all are slightly different in view, handling and relative strengths. None have any particularly significant weaknesses. Have her try out those four models on Chuck's non-complicated list and choose the one she prefers most. She'll be happy for as long as she can keep on birding.

Given their price these must be the best existing 10x binocs (at least in the compact class). Unfortunately they're outside your price range.

Looks like her first order will be for the Zeiss 10X42 SF
Very good choice indeed!
Looks like her first order will be for the Zeiss 10X42 SF. She got a deal at Sports Optics and she is waiting for a shipment to come in.
A couple hundred grand will buy a LOT of dog food!:king: Those are nice speakers.:king:Actually I am. If she dies and her family cannot do it, I take over the two dogs I trained for her and I get a couple hundred grand for dog food and effort. I'd have done it anyway. Oh and I inherit her binoculars and a pair of great Bower and Wilkins tower speakers.

Change of plans guys. She bought my 8x50B Swarovski and I found this this deal here and she ordered one to see how it goes. She's got 30 days to see how they perform. https://www.tractoptics.com/products/binoculars/toric-uhd-10x42-gen-1
She's bought three good pair of binos this week. Am I envious? You figure it out.:-C However I had the fun of finding them for her.:king:
