There is more to picking a set of binoculars than finding the highest magnification at the lowest cost. To find out more about how design, build quality and optical considerations play a role I talked to experts from two of the leading optics manufacturers: Adam Goess is the SRO Product Manager at Nikon and Shane Meisel is the Brand Manager for Binoculars at Leupold & Steven."
