binoculars???

(quoted from post at 08:17:12 07/15/11) I have a pair of Steiner 8 X 30. They run around $190 here in the states. I wish I could afford their 10 X 50, but dont have that kind of cash.

(quoted from post at 11:17:43 07/15/11) Tractor related cause you may be looking at forsale signs and not want to get out of the car....

Anyway, what is a good Joeblow pair for looking at wildlife and birds? Don't want a spotter scope but no opra glasses either. I like to watch hawks, birds and deer but don't want something you need a masters degree to use.

Any tips appreciated......

(8x30, 10x50??? Zoom??, etc)

Thanks, Dave

You wouldn't believe what them things cost here... And in my area, the stores that sell them are in the middle of the city so even if they'd let you take them outside streets are lit up....
I suggest you go to a store selling them and try a couple different ones out just when it is getting dark. How well they work in low light condtions will separate the men from the boys.
