Hello Bones,
My favorite pair of binoculars is my Fujinon Mariner model (7X50
with compass). The optics are splendid, the compass is a very handy feature,
for coastal navigation and they were nowhere near the cost of Steiners. They
don't fog up internally and they also have 22mm eye relief. The only
drawback is the individual focus is not as fast or familiar as center focus,
but there may be other Fujinon models which have that feature. Look through
as many binoculars as you can (I certainly did). I believe the optics in the
Fujinons are first rate.

Hello List,
I'm shopping for a pair of binoculars. I'd like a marine set with an
eye relief of at least 22mm because I wear glasses and in the 7 x 50 size.
Any proven winners out there? What is everyone fond of? Anyone use a
compass enclosed model?
Thanks for the shared knowledge.
Bones
