I was wondering if anyone had any reviews or input about Leupold's binoculars. I just bought a Wind River Mesa 8x42 binocular. It uses center focus porro prism, is waterproof, field of view 34.1 (ft @100yards), min focus 16.4, weight 26.5.
I'm new to birding and didn't have alot of money to spend on higher dollar binoculars, even though these are alot pricier than alot of lower ended ones. Mostly I'll be using it for birding (backyard & field), and other uses, but mostly birding.
Anyone used these before? I loved the field of view and precision (when viewed in the store, in low light situations) was pretty sweet. But then again this is the first time I've really tried out binoc's in order to compare before buying. Oh, and I wear eyeglasses, which these worked well with.
As competition, I was looking at the Eagle Optics, Denali 9x32 binocular. Not sure what type of prism it was.
thanks!
