Hi there,

I was at Sim Lim yesterday. Looking for the Minolta activa series and saw a 7x35 with variable mag(7x to 15x). However I am not comfortable with it because when it went to 15x, I am not able to focus to a clear image.

I may go to Lucky Plaza to see if anything pops out.

Zoom binos are not recommended, due to poorer optical quality, narrower field, less eye-relief or all of the above. Go for the fixed magnification bino. These Activa series currently can still be found at Sim Lim Square and Lucky Plaza.
