Hi,
I am looking to purchase a set of binoculars and have been looking at four Bin's in particular, they are:
Hawke 8x43 ED Frontier £289
Pentax 8x42 DCF HRc £232
Minox BV 8x42 BR £165
Bushnell 10x42 Natureview £129
Although there is a price difference of £160 between the most expensive of these bin's and the least. Does anyone have experience of these bin's? Is it a case of spend more and you will see the difference?
I feel I keep going around in circles regarding the range of bin's and due to my location find it hard to try these out before buying.
Does anyone have any help and advise they could give me.
Thanks.
I have tried some of those or their more expensive counterpart and in my opinion the Hawke's are well out in front of them and many more expensive bino's. £289 is too much, speak to London Camera Exchange (stores around the country) and haggle. I got my latest Frontier ED's for £199 at LCE Worcester. They still had one pair left when I asked them a week or two ago.
Btw, where is Duns?
Thanks for the advise! I Shall contact LCE. Duns.... in the Scottish Borders.
