Terry, if I had to pick one all around binocular, it would be the Swift 8.5x44 Binoculars. My eyes are about 5mm max, so I agree with you. Awesome sweep of the...
Glad you like them Cathy, I just spent a couple of weeks in the U.K., these sell with the Bresser name on them for around 250 pounds on sale (gulp).I notice a...

<<a friend is shopping binoculars for football games>> For FOOTBALL, my answer would be the same as for someone getting into BIRDING: 8 x 32 roof prism, any...
I ordered them yesterday. Thirty day return privilege, so I can send them back if the IPD is not suitable. Out just the return shipping. Could not find out the...
IPD range should be included the description/specifications for all bins! Unfortunately, it is almost never included. Looking at mine, I would estimate 58mm...
Thank you, Cathy ! I know that your Nikon are published as 56mm Minimum, but maybe not yours. Yes, IPD is very hard to get to the nearest millimeter or two. I...
Dave, How did I miss it ! I checked Yahoo Mail this monring..Nothing, then checked just now (2124 Hrs. California Standard Time..11/03)..and there was your...

The Montana 7x42 Binoculars arrived. I measured about 58mm minimum IPD. This seems confirmed by them not being suitable for my IPD (56mm). I have the RMA...
Hello Frank, I own a pair of Nikon 10x50 Action Extremes. I highly recommend them for binocular astronomy, with a few comments: The field of view is wide, at...

Frank, Be aware that these are very thorough reports by a highly regarded expert. That said, you may find a negative not be an issue with you. An example, I...
These appear similar to many others in their general price range. I cannot comment on them specifically because I have neither observed with them or remember...
