Nikon's MONARCH 7 8x30's have been my go to bino's since turkey season. Clear,bright and light weight. Combined with MONARCH 7 glass and Nikon's No Fault Policy you can't go wrong.

This is what one writer said about Nikon's MONARCH 7 bino's.

Nikon Monarch 7
This brand-new binocular costs $499 in a 10x42 version and $20 less in 8x42. I got a 10X model to fool with, and it is so good it leaves me somewhat unnerved. All the hardware is done right; the focusing is glassy smooth; the weight is only 23.6 ounces. I compared the Monarch 7 with four other binoculars whose prices ran from $700 on up to $2,400. The only binocular that was better, and not by a hell of a lot at that, was the one that cost $2K plus. It’s deeply distressing to me that people of ordinary means can afford something of this quality, but there you are.

Drop me a note with any question's.
