Binocular recommendations.

Swarovski are probably the best Bino's on the market. When you test most other makes against them, the brightness (and consequently low light capability) is phenomenal.

But they are pricey!!

Obviously Swarovski are the mutts nuts but if we are talking £200 they are out of reach, but £200 should get a very decent pair of binos.

Vortex are great. But the Talons that I have were £400. They do some decent ones for less though

Did I miss the OP putting a <£200 caveat on the recommendation??

No you didn't because the OP did not specify a limit of £200 .

No you didn't because the OP did not specify a limit of £200 . 5 posts in someone else mentioned that figure but not the OP .

Leica 8 x 20 Ultravid. Very light and small for the pocket bino, wide field of view and brilliant light capture. But £££. Get a fantastic repair warranty with Leica.

i have Hertel & Reuss, 8x30 - been using them for over 30yrs now, excellent quality and robust. have been well bashed but are still fully aligned. 8x30 best size for general purpose and for spotting. check out RSPB for best info.
