Hello!
Please, I need some advice...
Im considering buying some 10x50 binos with Prince coated lenses, they are reported to have been made in Japan in the 1960's.
I have not seen them, but the only markings are "Prince coated lenses"
Any help is appreciated...
Thanks!
Chris

If you don't know what you're doing you should be getting a real good price or moving on to something that is better known. In the binoculars ads section you can find some knowledgeable people.

I bought some Canon 1970s binoculars they were nice but actually I like the more recent stuff better. New multicoated optics are better. If someone is offering you these for $20 then what the hey.
