    New 10x42s wanted. But which ones?

    Thank you to everyone for all of your help! I found a shop (or three actually!) And have managed to try quite a few.... I liked the Leica trinovid hd (these may be my next purchase!) and the Swarovski NLs, but... I fell in love with the habicht. I've ordered those 😍

    Is there a strap long enough for me to do this? Can you recommend one? I tried with the strap that came with my binos but they are way too short, even when extended.

    Vintage binos???

    Hi all, After my previous post about buying some newer and better binos for birdwatching (thanks all who helped!!!); I've managed to try out the Swarovski habicht, and tbh, I'm completely in love - so I've ordered them... But ... I need your expert opinions again pretty please 🙏 on buying...

    Wow they look very complicated! But super cool looking none the less. Would definitely try them if/when I can!! Would love the idea of 12s but they may be even heavier thanost 10s so that'd put me off a fair bit.

    Thank you so much! Yep it is the green 10x42s I was looking at. They are so beautiful. Haha, yep, think she deserves a new sewing machine tbh. I'll have to find somewhere where I can try them!!

    Yes had a look at that harness and will probably buy TBF. It will help me massively. Your Habichts? Which ones? What size? How heavy? Lol. I was looking at these and they are beautiful! I absolutely adore the "look" of them, but obvs no idea what they are actually like. Would happily break...

    New 10x42s wanted. But which ones?

    Have to admit, I do think it looks nice and would happily wear one! It's hard not to worry about what other people think, when there's a group of older blokes all bragging about their binos and scopes and looking at me in disgust. I just got out of the hut and left. But I'm hoping they...

    New 10x42s wanted. But which ones?

    Ok serious question... Does anyone wear one of these? Don't get me wrong, I actually think it looks nice!! But I'm asking as I've never seen anyone wearing one and would be a bit self conscious... After yesterday's outing I've noticed there is a fair bit of snobbery with some birders I've met, I...

    New 10x42s wanted. But which ones?

    Thank you for your reply! I am almost set on 10x 42s, primarily because of longer distance and low lighting but if I could get something equal to (I know, probably a unicorn!) I would consider them. I'm not really bothered with IS tbh as hand shake isn't a concern, it's more of the weight when...

    Probably me being stupid, but I can't see it. There's nothing underneath your posts.

    Thank you. I was looking at the viper and the razor TBF but the razor is a little expensive for me. The viper has many good reviews so I'd definitely want to have a look at that too if poss.

    Anyone know any shops in England (preferably in north England) where I could try some of these out?

    Thanks but I really want 10x42 as doing long open distance mostly.
