G'day all A year ago I bought a pair of tiny bins in a disposal store. They are unbranded 8x21 jobs and measure 100 x 70 x 40 mm in the case. Cost was $70 and they are terrific for throwing into a coat pocket or small overnight bag. They are quite servicable except in poor light. Last Wednesday i used them to watch a peregrine falcon over Coogee beach (NSW) from the Holiday Inn 5th floor. Everyone who has tried them has been impressed. It remains to be seen how durable they are. (They are also ideal for watching footy or cricket) Cheers Steve ------------------------------------------------ Stephen Clark Agriculture Victoria Pastoral & Veterinary Institute Private Bag 105 HAMILTON 3300 Australia Phone 0355 730 977 Fax 0355 711 523 ------------------------------------------------ |
