Thanks for your @#%$ on Hunting binoculars "vortex??&qu

Thanks to all who took the time to respond to my post.
There is so much to pick from and it is very difficult to stay on my budget. Do you have any idea how hard it is not to look at Zeiss,Leica and other high end glass??? Wow.Anyway I truly have to stay within the $200.00 mark.I have narrowed it down to 2 brands the bushnell excursion 8x42$214.00 and the vortex sidewinder for $214.00.A local birding store here in Edmt. will bring them in for me to look at.They are well received on the review sites so I will look at them,and if I dont like them I do not have to buy.They have the best warranty and guaranty on the market.I will check them out on friday and will let you all know the outcome.Thanks again
