If you want the best, regardless of cost, consider the Swarovski ELS. Optically superb and astoundingly light weight for their quality, they focus as close as 8 feet and have an exceptionally wide field of view. We recommend the 8.5x42 model for people who wear glasses. Includes a free Snap Shot Adapter.

The binocular has twist-up eyecups and skin-friendly, non-slip rubberized covering. It has Swarovski's new "Easy to Clean" coatings on the lenses. Comes with case, strap, rainguard and attached (removeable) lens covers. We particularly appreciate that nice touch of the objective lens covers, which are tethered to the body of the binocular, so they won't get lost. Also comes in 10x42, and the new, mid-sized 8x32 and 10x32. (See Related Products, below.)
Includes Snap Shot Adapter, functional bag,
certificate and anniversary carrying strap.
