Binos in kit?

[The Ace of Spades]

I have a pair of Barska 10X25 compact binoculars in my kit. Had them for a few years now, and they suit me well. I don't usually EDC them, but I always take them with me when I go camping or hiking, and especially when bird watching. (the feathered variety) Although, I could do with a more powerful pair for the purpose of bird watching. Optics are a very useful piece of kit and can give you an advantage in many situations. I'm planning on getting a monocular at some point for my EDC purposes to save on space and weight.

Ace.

I have a decent pair and a set of Pulsar 2.7 x 50 NV bins in the Land Rover.

As some one else said ex forces and never go out with out my monocular around neck with my medi alert dog tags, metal mirror in my coat pocket along with my compass. Old habits die hard.

[Attack Warning Red]

I bought a Vortex monocular for my EDC a year or so ago. Nice little thing, and more powerful than my binos. Although I got out of the habit of carrying it, and it currently resides in a draw upstairs...

I think I'll start carrying it again, as I'm currently using my large rucksack.

It folds down to about 6". It weighs about 8oz and is made by Tasco. My Wife bought it for me years ago, and it is just, there, in my jacket pocket. I am sure there a smaller lighter ones now, but this was a good'un.

Sorry slightly of topic but I'm a photographer and wondered if it would go with my digiscope with my dSLR, can I be nosey and ask what the magnification Is?


It's sounds a tad heavy but if it works it works and if it isn't broke don't bother fixing it that's my motto
