Geez, Jim, any binoculars that can spot flying reindeer have gotta be great!
They are not easy to see.

As a rule, I don't buy anything
I have Steiners, without the compass. They are quite heavy, but very
well made with excellent optics. The only part that annoys me is the
cover for the eyepieces, it's a single cover and just doesn't work very
well. I also picked up a floating strap for them from WM but I have yet

Joel;
A few years ago Practical Sailor did a review of binoculars. They said that
Steiners were the very best you could get. But the pair they reviewed were
near $600.
Next was the Fujinon Poseidon MTRC-SX, which are around $450.
Next was the Fujinon Mariner WPC-XL at around $250. This

One of the powerboaters on our lake has a pair of Nikon (I think) stabilized
binoculars. About 3 or 4 times what you want to pay, but I was out drinking his
beer one day last summer and got to try them out. Unbelievable difference - I
was amazed how well and how much better they work.

I have the Nikon Ocean Pro 7X50 and they are very nice glasses. I took
advantage of the warranty when a lens element came unglued, West replaced
them because Nikon Canada wouldn't deal with them under US warranty. I also

I have a pair of Bushnell 7x50's with the compass and range finder, waterproof,

Sounds like I have 3 good brands to choose from. Any of them will be a
vast improvement over what I have now - Tasco's that were on clearance at

Joel,
I have had a pair of the Fujinon Mariners with compass for over 10 years with
no serious issue or complaints. Aside from replacing batteries for the compass
light and a couple of lens covers, they've performed well.

Joel,
I have a pair of Steiner Marine binoculars and love them. Everyone who
uses them has expressed how clear and bright the image is (with the strap
on, but maybe not as obsessively as if they were the Commander model).
Whoever was asking about wildlife viewing, I think you'd be looking for

Hi
I am also looking for binoculars but these are for wildlife viewing on smaller
lakes. Any thoughts on these?

I have used a pair of Steiner's Commander model for years. I especially
appreciate its ability to gather image in low light. They have survived many a
wet passage without moisture issues. I do keep them out of the hot sun or
severe wet when not in use. I insist that any crew who dares to use
When I was shopping (11 years ago) I found the fujinon to be the best price

choose the cheapest of the 3. A compass with led light and range finder

Joel,
I thought they were great, but given the specs and costs, I’d have a
hard time justifying to myself paying almost 25% additional over the Fujinon.
Just my 2 cents.
Or, 2.25 cents, depending on which way you go.
All the best,
