best new binocs to buy

[Anne Carrick <>]

The Swarovski shop in the Canberra Centre will give you an
impressive catalogue of binoculars.  They will also get in (takes a
few days) any binocs you want to try out, so you can handle them (only
inside the shop unfortunately - but from the doorway of the shop you can
see through the mall and up Ainslie Avenue).  They are very
expensive, but rate well in several reviews I have read.
