Thread: Zen Ray ED3? other options?

Im in the market for a decent pair of binos, my current set is not only large and heavy but iv also discovered that they are not waterproof

they will do for the mean time while I sort a new set out but Im looking at getting a smaller, lighter and hopefully better set of binos
zen ray and vortex keep coming up as great binos, but it seems everyone reccomending them is selling them so vested interest reccomendations dont count in my books

are these binos awesome? Im looking at either a set of 8 or 10 power binoculars and I realise I know basically nothing about binos
Im happy to spend a bit on binos but not the $2800 that is bieng asked for the best of the best

Id like light, to reduce pack weight and good glass budget is flexable

anyone care to share wisdom?
