This Opticron Explorer binocular is an inexpensive pocket binocular that is oh so easy to have with you all the time. Take it when you kayak, hike, or bike. It weighs practically nothing and takes up almost no space. But when you want it, you've got it! Also nice for kids, because the barrels come close together for even very small faces. Two cautions are that it does not have long enough eye relief to work well with glasses, and while it can withstand rain, it should not be submerged in water. NO SALES TAX except for Iowa addresses.
