looks like i have been going on a vortex binge lately --LOL
i'm considering getting a new set of binos that will work good in low light , funding ain't unlimited so don't even mention no gold plated glass. i have a couple of diamondback scopes and their overall brightness has impressed me so i'm thinking the diamondback 50mm binos would do the trick-- surfing around i find some similar roof types --like the alpen shasta ridge with all most the same specs for a bit less of the long green-- is it the same glass as the diamondback? and then konus has some big glass for even less $$$ they even have a 9x63--that might be too big--lol-- then we have a load of nice 8x42s and 8x44s like nikon monarchs --for all around the same price give or take a few bucs-- are there any real standouts below $300 that are better than the diamondback? thanks-- |
