At present I have a pair of Bushnell 8X42 bird series binoculars (£129) I use these on safari mainly to find the big cats. The problem I have is that animals in the far distance (up to 1 mile) cannot be identified with these binoculars, as there is not enough detail to identify the species. One problem could be sun haze during mid-day.
WE have the Nikon 10x42 HG's on offer at £500. Would these solve my problem? Would they give me the detail needed to identify species at such a long distance?
I find the Bushnell's bright and clear most of the time, therefore I Wouldn't like to waste my money if the difference is slight. I am relying on your experience, as it would be difficult for me to test for these conditions.
Thanks
Mike
