Lots of unhelpful posts here....once again, lots of functional Binos in the$500 range. Nothing wrong with that. But please don’t try to argue that they are like what Kodiak06 calls the big 3. My boys use my old Pentax, Nikon, and Leopoldo Binos. When they make their own money they can decide whether to upgrade. I agree that I would rather have one set of $2000 binos than a closet full of midrange binos. That goes for rangefinders and scopes too.
Buy the best you can afford and don’t look back.
