I came across a Web site that has 8x60 and 9x60 binoculars for 
US$109, and I wonder if anyone has any experience with them:

 http://www.oberwerk.com/bigbinos/

I've sent them a question as to why their exit pupil diameter
numbers for the 8x60s and 9x60s don't follow the standard 
formula of "objective mm/magnification" that I've seen 
everywhere else.

Anyway, more light-gathering power with less shaking seems 
like it would be nice, and that's a very good price if they're 
good binoculars.
