Don't underestimate the convenience of being able to wipe the dew off the lenses with your shirt sleeve in the field on less expensive binos, and not having the neurotic urge to put it back in its case with the lenscaps on every time you put it down.
This is one of the things I like most about my Pentax PCF (2nd hand < $100). It's plenty good enough for handheld stargazing and as a finder but it's also inexpensive and well-used enough, so that I don't feel sorry for it when i don't handle it with the utmost care. Part of the reason I just sold my little Fujinon.
Just a thought.
