I get a regular ‘deal’ email from B&H and spotted this oddity this morning:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1197974-REG/snypex_9842_lrf1800_snypex_knight_lrf1800_laser.html?utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=Promotion&utm_source=WeeklySpecials%20160314&utm_content=Retail&utm_term=Knight-8x42-LRF-1800 It’s a pair of 8x42 binocs from a company I’ve never heard of (Snypex!) for $800 ($200 off). Kinda pricey unless you count the fact that it has a built-in laser rangefinder. So if you have a burning desire to know exactly how far away your now blinded bird is, or if you like to spot airplanes just before being arrested by the FAA, these babies are for you! Or are these designed for people who cheat at golf?
