Dirksdonuts Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 Hi guys I am looking to try and find a cheap pair of binoculars to start my lad off with. 10x40 or 10x50 preferably I just dont want to buy a brand new pair incase he drops them. Anyone got a pair they want to sell on please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minky Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 How old is your lad.? 10x40......50 are big heavy units AND anything over 7x are hard to hold still. What will he be looking at and what sort of distance. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 You could get a new pair of Hawke Nature Trek 8x42 with a lifetime, no fault warranty, even if they are dropped. Priced around £130 and superb clarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrastu Posted May 11, 2022 Report Share Posted May 11, 2022 I second the above . I bought some for my daughter 8 x32 Very nice and compact and light . I've had big binos and they rarely get used but a small light pair in your pocket and they get loads of use . Just my opinion . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
