Binoculars?

Hey everyone,

I'm just looking for some guidance here, as I don't really know what i'm looking for. I've found these 3 binoculars, and was just wondering a few things about them.

Basically, I want to know what binoculars I should purchase, and if you could answer some of the following questions, it would be much appreciated

1. What does PCF and CF mean?
2. I highly doubt that i'll be setting a telescope up on a buoy in the middle of the ocean, so is it worth paying for the waterproof binocs?
3. Can anyone point me in the direction of a website with binocular reviews, and one which is trustworthy/accurate.
4. Would I be fine with the Tasco ones I linked? I don't really want to spend $300-400, if I don't have to.
5. Can anyone recommend another binocular? Would like some of your 'experienced' opinions to go by

Thanks all!
