large binoculars

[alhiggs]

are t s optics 25x100 better than the prions and celestron 25x1pp the spec says so just wondered if anyone had a pair

I've owned the TS ones and tried the Celestron ones. There are some superficial differences but they both seemed to perform the same to me.

Both types do need a very stable and tall mount, somewhat more so that 15x70's or 20x80's - the 25x100's are very large indeed !

Personally I think I'd be looking for binoculars with either 45 or 90 degree eyepieces when they get to that size to help with viewing comfort.

These are 22x80"s which I find are great for most things. They will need a mount. It is all about the optics.

The more U pay the better they are. I did think @ the time I was mad paying £275 for a s/hand pair. 

Get the best U can afford , U wont regret it in the long run. I would not go below 20x.
