Hi everyone, I’m unsure if this is the right group to post this on, I’ve recently done some birdwatching with my gf and have been thinking of buying my own binoculars for next time we go, but I don’t have a clue about them. What would you say the best magnification to get would be, and is there any specific brands I should steer clear of? If you can give me any other info I’d be very grateful
