So I was thinking about designating a pair of nocs to my vehicle as I'm often traveling up and down the different mountain roads in my car going to different jobs and there are many times I wish I had my binoculars with me to get a closer look at wildlife. I have a nice pair of Luepold BX-1's 10x30 and a not super nice pair of Bushnells 10x42 and was wondering if prolonged exposure to the elements of extreme cold in the winter and extreme heat in the summer would be bad for them.
I would assume that over time moisture and condensation would find it's way in possibly, just not sure. I know they are both nitrogen purged and O ring sealed and such. Was thinking if it was bad I would just throw my cheaper Bushnells in the rig but if it makes no difference I'll use my luepolds because they are a lil bit clearer and higher quality..... also, anybody have the Luepold BX-1 Yosemites? What do you think of em, is there anything significantly better than them in the $200+/- price range? I'd like to have a nice quality pair of binoculars but I cant spend much more than that on binoculars. I might just stick with what I have, idk.
