I need to get a set of Binoculars. As these will be for general use, some hunting, some range work, some scouting, some sporting events, etc. I am finding it hard to choose a make and model.
Addditionally I don't understand the difference between a poro-prism and a roof-prism. Does one type give better clearity than the other? In times past, I was warned against a variable power set-up, but now the manufacturers claim there is no difference between fixed and variable power?
Most of my experience with binoculars were with military issue ones. In large part they were large, hard to carry, and hard to keep stable. So I don't want to get anything approaching them in size.
I don't want to spend much over $200 on them.
Thank You.
