My binos just broke and my wife hates to use them anyway so, I am going to get a new set instead of trying to fix the old ones. I like smaller sized pocket and 30mm type and was wondering what was good beside the obvious. I like the conquest and zeiss pocket size. A little bigger but the Leupold Pinnacles were nice when I looked through them. I don't have the option to look through a lot of these and was wondering if the Ziess pocket is bright enough to compare to my old burris 30mm. I would hope they are better. Anybody use these?

One of my friends took his Pentax binocs on a special alaskan cruise and was able to spot more wildlife than the passengers with their high buck binocs.I bought Pentax 20x60 binocs along with a tripod after taking "How To Glass for Trophy Animals" from AZ Guide Duwane Adams www.arizonabiggamehunting.com

PoppaW,

You must go to a store(s) and handle the various choices. Thats the only way to get one thats best for you.

Some have different eye relief, fit glasses or no glasses wrong for you and I.

I have Leupold 8-42 Pinnacles and the damm adjusting wheel for the focus is so easy to turn that every time I lift them again they are out of focus.

The eye doctor asks 'US'. What do you see better with A or B? !!!!!!!


Get the 'power' or optic that your eye likes instead of what someone else says.

When we go to the doctor they ask us what lens we like!

Do that with your optics.

These are what I use.
I had 8X32 and 8X42 Kahles, which were great, but the Nikons just work better for me.
I have a NIB pair in 10X that I would sell.
Let me know if you're interested.
