The problem is there are so many options I don't know where to start. I also suspect there is a lot of junk binos around too. I don't want to spend a truck load of money - say around the $200 mark.
Generally speaking, I do almost all visual stuff with the Binos and I leave the CCD camera on the scope.
Any suggestions where to start? Second hand is ok. Also, any suggestions for a project to put old binos to good use?
