This one was a great deal a couple of months back: https://slickdeals.net/share/iphone_app/fp/701281
the sightron 10x32s look pretty nice though. thats about the size and magnification i want. 10x40 would be a bit better, but the 32s will be nice for packability.

* 2 notes: Sighton QC is hit and miss I had to send a unit back and get a replacement due to a smudge on the inside glass elements. And if you want an alternative to the sightrons another good pair to give a try are the Athlon Neos G2 8x42 available for under $100 on amazon regularly. I was extremely impressed with optic quality using them in an urban environment day/night and they were built rather well.

Sightron 10x32 SII
mostly because i think they are the form factor im looking for, and the price was great. i do a lot of hunting, hiking and backpacking, so i wanted something small, but something with a decent amount of zoom.
I guess I made a good decision to pick up the FujiFilm cuz it looks like they only produce high-end binoculars now in the $700+ territory.

Since these are entry level, I'll also note that most beginners would be better off with a lower magnification. It will be easier to find things using an 8x because you'll be able to see more things at a time and a deeper part of the image will be in focus. It will also be easier to hold still. A shaky image can keep you from seeing the extra detail from a higher magnification. Since it's hard to tell what magnification you need until you experience it, I recommend starting lower and working your way up.
