Carson VP Series Binoculars

Listen, everybody puts "birdwatching" on their online dating profile. It's a fact. But what do you do if your date calls your bluff and starts asking you questions? You pull out your sweet Carson binoculars, that's what. These precision 'noculars will silence any skeptics, and that's what dating is all about.

These aren't the first batch of binoculars we've seen mosey through Sport. How do they compare?

And how do you pick between all the models presented here today?

I'm just hanging out, really.

I needed a pair for hunting and based on this endorsement: http://carsonoptical.com/assets/pdf/pressrelease/Outside%20Buyers%20Guide%202012.pdf
I picked up a pair of the 10x42's. I wanted a little more power (10x) than the 8x featured in Outside Buyer's Guide. The only catch with higher power is being able to hold it steady. I'm usually perched somewhere so that won't be an issue.

The first number is the magnification power.

Divide the second number by the first number to get a relative rating of its low light ability. The higher quotient, the better it will be in low light.

In daylight, the quotient won't matter.

I've only got the one eye, how about a big WOOTy Monocular sale, eh?

Some truly cold-hearted bass turd stole my good one...

Say- are we allowed to talk about fish that way here?
