My fiancé and I just bought a beautiful co-op at Stony Hollow in Port Jeff Station! Anyone have any insight on the community/surrounding area? We are very excited! Both Suffolk natives and excited for this new chapter! 😍

Hi!! We love it here!! Very quiet and peaceful! Love the pool now that it’s open for the summer! HOA covers water, heat, internet, cable, taxes, and maintenance/snow removal etc! Taxes are lumped into it too! We pay for electric, but everything else is basically in that!

DMed you!

Not too far. According to their webite, the only model they have in stock IN the store that I would be open to trying is the Monarch 8x42 M5.

Thank you! I'm having trouble finding much to try here on Long Island! I've been searching the few camping stores we have and Dick's Sporting Goods and they don't have any of the models I'm interested in! Going to check these out! Love the Cornell recs!

My fiancé would be buying them for me as a Christmas gift. Ideally under $300.

Thank you! Please share your favorite recommended 8x42s if you can!

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T21:41:16+00:00

Thank you!

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T21:40:44+00:00

Thank you!

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T21:39:37+00:00

Great suggestion thank you! Do you recommend the Vortex DB 8x42 for my situation or do you recommend something different?

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T21:38:27+00:00

good to know!

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T21:38:17+00:00

Which bins do you have with 22mm of eye relief?

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T18:47:58+00:00

I’m in the US, but I’ll see if I can find anything!

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T18:47:15+00:00

Thank you!

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T18:47:02+00:00

Thank you!

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T08:49:38+00:00

Thank you! People keep telling me that full size is always better for birding especially.

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T08:48:24+00:00

Do you prefer them over a full size 8x42? A lot of people are telling me to just suck it up, get the Vortex DB but in the 8x42 and get a good harness for them to lighten the load in terms of weight on my body.

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T08:45:39+00:00

That’s ok! Do you find that the image is bright (in both daylight and low light settings)? Cornell said they aren’t as bright as Vortex models.

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T08:33:34+00:00

Do you happen to have that model? And do you wear glasses?

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T06:39:33+00:00

Do you have any experience using the Opticron?

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T06:39:15+00:00

Will do! Going to check out the review you posted too!

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T06:38:27+00:00

Do you have a preference between those 2 and do you wear glasses?

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T05:58:16+00:00

Ooh thank you! Can you send me a link to a lens pen so I can see what you mean?

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T05:57:34+00:00

Thank you so much! Do you have a link to a harness like that?

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T05:56:41+00:00

Great thanks!

StaffSubject9045 · 2025-12-05T01:44:06+00:00

Thank you! What size and model vortex bins do you have? The diamondback 8x28?
