GustoferIn the more money than sense category.
If I had fuck you money, though, I'd snag that $36000 setup.

jaaron11I love how they give you the option of splitting it into $30,000 installments. If you can afford a million dollar pair of binoculars "just because", I suspect you're not too concerned about cash flow problems.

sjtillO.M.G. I feel so inadequate with my little Questar and my mere 102 mm Tak. Not to mention the Televue 85. I clearly need to step up my game. Barf!!

They look less weird when they're on the veranda of a $33M beachfront home in Santa Monica.

P250UA5Not the binoculars I was expecting. Seems more akin to a telescope.

LoswsmithThe Navy Mark III bigeye model is totes my jam.
And look! "Reasonable offers considered" on the $1m-$5k binos. So it's not all bad news there. But really, if you have the kind of resources to throw at binoculars it would be gauche to try to negotiate.

architectI imagine, in this day and age, you can't be serious about binoculars unless they are fed into a digital camera and backed by an AI. I'd imagine that these sorts of systems are what enables "spy" satellites and that they cost far more than a $million.
And, how many of these taxpayer-funded delights are being used primarily to image naked sunbathers in their back yards in Malibu?

It would be very similar to that, just a thousand times worse.
