    I think for bush work, 8 power is more than enough, 6x25 would be fantastic if you could find it.

    I've gone for a pair of Yukon 8x56 binoculars. Somewhat cheaper than most pairs mentioned by others, but hunting is one of a number of cash draining hobbies.

    Heavy glasses, but great in the low light on early morning hunts. I need to get a bino bivvy bag for them but good things take time.

    I haven't compared them to the top of the line glasses, but they do compare favorably to the $6-800 10x40 ish ranges. Just much heavier
