[QUOTE="david k., post: 4006231, member: 10555"] 25 years ago, before Nikon, Leupold, etc. started making binoculars the options were either cheap or really expensive....I don't remember there being any "mid priced" binoculars available back then. I was fresh out of college but had a friend who had a pair of Swarovski SLC and when I compared them to the Tasco's, Bushnells, etc. that were more in in my price range, there was no comparison. I decided to save up and bought a pair SLC 7x30 for $450.00 and they'll probably be the only bino's I ever buy. I've looked through a lot of glass and they're still as good as most anything on the market I agree with Snowwolfe in that the glass is better today and when you couple that with more manufacturers competing in the space, we win. Buy the best you can afford and you'll never regret it. [/QUOTE]
