binos

["Damien Farine" <>]

Last November I bought some Bushnell Powerview 8x42s from Camerahouse:

These were $179 with a free pair of Bolle sunglasses!  I was a bit sceptical 
when I tried them, however I found that they are light, clear and nice to 
hold.  They served me in great stead on my recent NZ trip on both land and 
water.
I can tell that they are nowhere near the quality of your $700+ bins... but 
for the price I find them damn good!  Definitely a great step up from my 
chunky 10x50 bushmasters :)
Cheers,
Damien
