(about £49.00 from Argos 30years ago when my older sister bought me some after weeks of hinting and whining!) Sure, these are both obsolete and probably optically terrible by todays standards)

..I mean the bino's-NOT my older sister!

Steiner Ranger Pro 8x56's-wicked bins which I love to bits (lifelong keepers)... Waiting for some Fujinon 16x70's in post at moment(Just couldn't help myself and the sale of all my internal organs has nearly paid for them! )

Have used; Strathspey 20-40x100's-awesome but as much hassle to launch as my scope so sold them... Strathspey 25x100's again lovely but ditto...Strathspey 10x50 Marines, super bino's but sold on due to various other reasons... Bresser 10x50's, my 1st binos after about 25 years without a pair, what can I say?.. Great bino's for £20 and it's really only after looking through some snob brand stuff that you could 'criticise' them, they're currently a gift to my nephew who is getting into astronomy-and I'm sure these will fuel the fire instead of extinguishing it!.....

...And now my all time faves: COMMODORE 10X50 RUBBER COATED (about £49.00 from Argos 30years ago when my older sister bought me some after weeks of hinting and whining!) Sure, these are both obsolete and probably optically terrible by todays standards, but these bino's advanced my enjoyment of the night sky immensely as a (then) 10 year old!.. I still kind of compare bino's to them now!..Sadly, they got damaged and were chucked    (Does anyone else have a pair of these?!)
