Best Binoculars I've ever had .

[Bobbyoutback]

Hi All .
I've had dozens of types of binoculars over the last half century '
Below are pics of my all time favorite , not sure how old they are but there performance is superb , sharp as a razor with huge FOV .

Jap made Titan 7x35 super wide angle , the field of view is 10deg !

I'm looking to buy some 8x42 binoculars with the same specs .
Your thoughts please ?

Hard to get 8x42s with 10º field of view......

I have Miyauchi EXLD-42 8x42 ED binoculars that have a 7º FOV. They are the best binoculars I have tested in that size. Superbly sharp and bright views compared to my Bushnell and Pentax.

I’ve been thinking about getting the same 8x42 as well to replace my old tasco binos. Good to hear the optics are bright and sharp :thumbsup:
