Excellent choice - Carson VP Series 8X32mm Binoculars

For the price, these compact 8X32 binocs are an excellent choice. Very good optics, easy to hold, solid, no compromise construction, and bright field of view. All the usual bells and whistles (phase coated, waterproof, fog proof, great warranty). SO if you don't want to pay more for something like the Carson 3D series binocs, these are the ones to get!
