I have come across the opportunity to upgrade my well-beaten Nikon Monarch ATB's and would appreciate some advice!
I'm looking for a pair under $500-$530 that adheres fairly well to these provisions:
-Clear, crisp, bright image
-Wide FOV
-Excellent resistance to rain and humidity
-Durable build
-Light weight, but I'm fairly strong and can accommodate
-Preferably 8x42
Take into account that I live in the tropical highlands, where most birding takes place in misty woods along bumpy mountain trails. I also travel regularly to the hot, humid jungles of the lowlands.
The Monarch 7 looks great, but I'm not sure it is the best purchase possible at this price range. Any suggestions will be gratefully received.
