Those are endearing, maybe charming, but I wouldn't say adorable.

The Celestron TrailSeaker ED was the best rated mid range binocular of the 15 models tested by a birdwatching group. They rated them better than higher priced binos under $500. Those would be my choice, especially at that price.
My other auto is a .45
The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of low price has faded from memory

I wish there was standardized resolution, brightness, aberration, and light transmission percentages required to advertise glass as HD, ED, super ED, etc.
I can walk on water.......................but I do stagger a bit on alcohol.

I want the 8x42 in the Celestron TrailSeaker ED but they want over $100 more so the 10x42 will be my choice I wish there was standardized resolution, brightness, aberration, and light transmission percentages required to advertise glass as HD, ED, super ED, etc. I want the 8x42 in the Celestron TrailSeaker ED but they want over $100 more so the 10x42 will be my choice. I don't think Doug carry's Celestron.
