Thank you for starting this thread Terry. I have enjoyed in half an hour 3 years or so of debate. Not sure I'm going to be buying x16 at the end of it but I am sure that I will be using my binoculars more efficiently.
I have a pair of binoculars that are far older than me (no need for anyone to persue this please) and they seem to be as good optically as anything up to £400 that I have had the opportunity to test. Where they obviously fail to match up is with depth of field - but I hope better technique as described at the beginning of the thread will help.
Finally - I particularly enjoyed #49 - had a good laugh with (not at) the contributor there. I look forward to the day I can go out and treat myself like that !
Best wishes.
