When considering on buying anything, the price shouldn't matter as long as the item worth the amount you're spending on it and most importantly when it's a stuff you needed more. What type of bino is that?
If you handed me a $1k and said I want the best I can get for that I’d patiently watch the classifieds for some Swaro SLC’s. Spend the other couple hundred sending them back to Swaro for cleaning/update.
I love these binos, bought them new from camera land in 2019, spent a lot of time behind these. Great condition, always kept in a bino harness. My hunting style has changed and I find myself glassing off a tripod more than anything else. So 12x50’s are my next move. I’d be willing to trade for...
Ziess just updated their Conquest line. you can get new "old style Conquests" for $700 right now since they are closing that model out. they are as good as it get's for the $1000 dollar mark of binos
