The binoculars should be compact and light but offer good magnification. Wide field of view is not important, though a `zoom' feature would be desirable. Recommendations on specific models/brands, as well as `what to look for in a good set of binoculars', would be helpful. Please respond via mail. Responses will be summarized later. Gordon A.
