Paul,
Firstly thankyou for your response to my last post! Im still on the lookout for some new glass and would be keen to know if anyone has had a chance to look through Hawkes latest offering (Sapphire ED 8X43)? I have been lucky enough to have owned alpha binoculars in the past (Swarovski 8.5x42EL & Leica Ultravid 8x42) until i fell upon hard times!!!!!! Austerity,who needs it? I am now on the lookout for some new glass around the £500 mark. I know that sort of money will not give me the view i have been lucky enough to have but something close would be good!
So, with a £500 budget what would the discerning birder buy?
That's where you come in!
Any advice welcome.
Regards
Nick
