I have been considering buying a pair of compact bins for some time now, but do not have much experience of using them so need some advice.
I would be looking to get a 8x pair with good quality optics without spending a small fortune. Just want a half decent pair to keep with me when out working. I have also just seen the Opticron Traveller (8x32) which seem very compact and was wondering if anyone knows much about them.
Thanks in advance, Peter
I'd like to suggest that you give the website
www.betterviewdesired.com
a try.
Very honest, objective reviews of all kinds of optics, including compacts. This of it as a "Consumer Report". Offers suggestions for best value for the money, too.
Haven't tried the Opticron Traveller but the Opticron bins I have tried were excellent and their budget scopes are great value for money. If you can get to Tichwell you should be able to try them.
Bev the website you suggested is American isn't it ? What do Opticron trade as over there?
