Question: Is there one
binocular that can be used for
astronomy,
birding,
hunting, sports watching, wildlife viewing, surveillance,
boating or just about anything that requires a closer look? Answer: Yes, a waterproof 8x42 binocular is the world's
universal binocular and any 8x42 waterproof binocular of reasonable quality can be used for any binocular application. An 8x42 may not always be the very best choice for a specific application, but it can always be used to some extent for any binocular application. Do you have your 8x42 binocular, yet?
