Interesting you would bring this up because I've been doing a lot of thinking about this recently. I myself can't handle anything above 7x for bird and nature watching because of the shake. First thing first is to make sure you can handle a 10x. The lower the power the clearer the binoc will be and it will be steadier , lens quality being similar. If you really want a 10x their are image stabilizing binoculars. Another consideration is water proofing and nitrogen or argon purging. I myself will never buy an non waterproof glass again. My cheap Nikon's have dust inside and are a bit fogged up on one side. I'm looking into Opticron. A porro at a similar cost will be clearer but heavier. Plenty of reviews on the net. A chance you could do better than the Monarch. Nothing, just like audio subs for direct experience with the binocular. I've seen cheap ones blow away very expensive binoculars. Lots of bs just like in audio. T456
