for $100 you should be able to get a FMC glass, check andrews site - look at theie marine grade 10x50 for 99, & the HG high grade 10x50 for $169, both are waterproof, with nitrogen so no internal fogging if using them in damp/dew conditions
Yep, that's why I mentioned that I didn't see any suggestion of it on the Tasco Binos. I'll check Andrews out. The thing is that once I pay for postage to QLD, the cost will be a fair bit higher, and likely a good chunk of the Binos total cost. The Tasco ones I can buy locally.
