Great binoculars for the money - Leupold BX-2 Cascades 8x42mm Binoculars

These are some of the sharpest and brightest binoculars I've owned for under $1K. I've had price mid-range binoculars from several name brand manufactures and none came close to these. Great hunting optic. These will allow you to glass early and stay late as they are very bright. If this is your price range, this is a pair of binoculars you should be considering.
Pros: Optic quality for price
Cons: Lens caps
