Klutz, you can check out my Binos of course, but if 10x50s break your arm, you'll know how a 20x80 really needs a tripod+mount.

After I showed my girlfriend my 20x80 on a mount, she now insists on having a mount for herself when she uses my 12x50 (the one that WX doesn't see 2 stars). Now I've gotta bring 2 tripods and mount everytime I go ob with her!! hee hee
(On a side note, she hogs my Scope now that I installed an Intelliscope)
So you see how much better a mount is for observing.

If you want, you can try someone's 8x42 for less shake and the same exit pupil .... It doesn't seem popular in Spore though, so I don't know who has one. It's the next bino I'll be interested in so I'm looking to try one too....

In the end, just have fun with the 10x50s you have now .... remember, it's more important to enjoy the sky than to get a ton of gear ... although the gear does bring a certain satisfaction and joy that it gets addictive too ...
