+ 1 on the 6x30 Yosemites. I love mine, (when I can get 'em away from the wife), and even have a binocular harness for them for hiking, etc. They really are incredibly bright, at least they seem that way when watching deer, fox & other critters in the twilight or at first light. But to me they don't qualify as "pocket" compact binos. For something to put in a pocket I've got some Steiner Predator Pro 10x26's I got a few years ago on sale from Cameraland. So far they seem pretty rugged and they fold up nice and small. Not as bright as the Yosemite's but that's probably due to 10 power and only a 26mm objective lens. But at least they take up very little space. They will slip into the shirt pocket of most of my shirts.
