My husband is fascinated with planes, trains, and ships. When we go to the beach he insists on taking the Binoculars every time. He loves to look at the huge cargo ships that pass by. The beach is also very close to an old air force base and they still have some pretty big planes land, so every five seconds he is grabbing the Binoculars to look at something. It gets quite annoying. (as a side note here. My husband complains that I lose my sunglasses every time we go to the beach. Don't tell him but I usually lose them long before we ever get to the beach. I just thought I would throw that bit of information in because he thinks losing my sunglasses is very annoying.)
Every year for the past several years I have tried to find the perfect pair of Binoculars for what he thinks his needs are. I have a compact pair in the Jeep for road trips. I also have my favorite pair that we bought at the Big E a couple of years back.
My biggest complaint with binoculars is that you see something you want to look at and then it takes you several minutes to find it with the binoculars. The Bushnell X-tra Wide 900' field of view allows you to scan the "field" and find what you are looking for quickly. My only complaint is that they are not very powerful. I also paid the full price of $91+ for these. This site has these binoculars at 50% off. They also have a gift guide that I found incredibly helpful.
I am open to suggestions and recommendations from others for great Christmas gifts. I hope that my readers are too. Yes I was paid for this post BUT I really think these binoculars are a perfect gift.
