I really like the idea of a pocket binocular and have tried many over the years and have never found a pair that I like. I agree, one of the ways to partially overcome their inherent shortcomings would be to offer a 6x model, but I am not aware of any current 6x pocket binos. The Swaro design gets excellent reviews, but is only available in 8x or 10x. Aside from the price, the most common complaint is that they are so large they are borderline as far as "pocket" bino's and you may as well go to a 8x32 or 10x32.

I have two 6x bino's I'm really happy with - a 6x30 Leupold Yosemite and a Vortex Viper HD 6x32. Both are too large to be called pocket bino's, particularly the Leupold. The Leupold is very impressive for the $85 price. Camera Land just ran a sale (don't know if it's still current) on the Vortex Viper HD's for $400. The Viper HD's are a steal for that price.

Please keep us posted if you find any viable 6x pocket binoculars.
