I ran into the same problem, bought a pair of high end 10x, and they collect dust (for now). Wanted something in the 6x range and did some research, bought the Yosemites, great glass, reviews and price, and very functional. Now that the leaves are down and wide open, I take the 10x out. One good thing about the Yosemites, I don't worry about pampering them compared to the 10x.

Get the best ones you can afford. Money spent on the best binoculars you can get is money well spent. Nothing worse than bad ones.
Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.- Ben Franklin

I inherited a Bushnel 6X44 Monocular with a leather carry bag, other than being a pain to put in and take out of bag, it's pretty cool.

I guess it's supposed to attach to a camera also, but mostly it just sits on a shelf in my shop.......

I use a pair of Nikons either 7X50 or 10X50, depending on wich side of the mountains I am hunting (its thick here on the west side)
