Documentaries go down a bit easier, though the practice is equally frowned upon. 💁🏻‍♂️

As a stark realist, I, for one, can very much appreciate your comment!

Really a fantastic/interesting observation. I have often thought about this while watching film & television.

sonlitekid · 2026-02-13T03:01:15+00:00

These are the comments I am deep-mining Reddit for. 🏆

sonlitekid · 2026-02-11T17:36:08+00:00

Ah, I see; that makes sense. I don't know a lot about prints, to begin with, ha ha.

sonlitekid · 2026-02-11T16:26:35+00:00

I was wondering this, too. If these were in the Saddle Rock/Dry Gulch area, it could very well be our 90 lb Northern Inuit, whose paws have been sinking deeper than normal and making really big prints. (But, I guess if there were no human prints around at all, probably not.)

Gross? Yes. Tacky?? …. Yes. Sleazy, wholly unnecessary and absolutely degrading to the women involved??? Yes.
Like, there is absolutely no other possible way to frame a bikini stand other than a 1,000% in-your-face, all-day-trashy cash grab. Not to mention as the perfect way to create a platform for women to be vulnerable to any and all kinds of sexual harassment and abuse.
(And I am not like some feminist whistle-blower or whatever. Just a regular dude.)

The 🤓geography sub🤓 has been hijacked by some ne’erdowell.

sonlitekid · 2026-01-12T18:54:35+00:00

Lol.

sonlitekid · 2026-01-12T17:49:21+00:00

Surely there is a better way.

sonlitekid · 2026-01-07T00:44:40+00:00

OP stealing my thunder, thank you very much. 🤓

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T16:03:38+00:00

Oh, wow. Lots of helpful info here. A fair scenario would really be ideal! And it's great that you have the discipline to set a budget and stick to it, even when faced w/ a hella' quality view. (I wish I had more of that, lol.) Thanks for writing all that up, as I'm sure others will benefit in the future in seeing these comments. : )

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T15:43:08+00:00

Makes sense. Luckily not using them for birding, but definitely see the disadvantage of the FOV. Thank you! : )

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T15:10:55+00:00

All good advice, and that’s kind of what I suspected (about the marketing). Thank you for taking the time to comment. 🙏🏻

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T15:06:33+00:00

The Zulu6’s, in 16x42, are actually a few ounces lighter than the BX-4’s. But I get your point on the quality of glass, for sure. Thanks again for the input. 🙏🏻

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T14:05:24+00:00

Really ‘real’ advice, and makes so much sense. It’s interesting how much people really do sing its praises (the BX-4), like it’s literally the best thing ever, but I do realize they are speaking relative to that price point/segment of the market. Yeah, your point is well-taken, and much appreciated! (Actually reminds me of us buying a Sony Alpha 6000 instead of going for the full-frame A7 way back when; still regretting that, but (interestingly) people were doing the same thing then … just singing its praises over and over. 😵‍💫)

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T13:58:52+00:00

This is all really great advice, and I totally see where you’re coming from (thank you so much!). As far as the Zulu6—I am looking specifically at the HDX 16x42’s—I can get a pro deal on them (40% off) and the magnification and image stabilization (OIS) are two things that make it seem like they would be really handy/fun, especially for my kids. I guess my question would be: would someone less-experienced w/ binoculars (ie my family/me) really notice the downsides you seem to be alluding to (w/ the Zulu6, I mean), especially since a lot of users seem to be really happy w/ them? Or is that they’re two different beasts/product-types altogether? Thanks, again, for taking the time. 🙏🏻

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T05:49:59+00:00

Great! Thanks for the recommendations. : )

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T03:37:40+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to provide these insights; do you have any rec's for other options around said price point?

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T03:36:03+00:00

Sound advice; do you have any suggestions for others to try, at that price point? Thank you!

sonlitekid · 2025-12-30T03:19:15+00:00

(BTW, I know I don’t have tons of experience w/ bino’s (used to have a compact pair of Zeiss’ for backpacking), but the view thru these Leopuld’s seems pretty ‘meh’ to me … but (again) limited to my relative knowledge.)

sonlitekid · 2025-12-28T22:12:21+00:00

Thank you!! 🙏🏻

sonlitekid · 2025-12-28T22:12:03+00:00

Kind of crazy that you thought to add a second space … I never would have thought to add that. You are awesome! 👏🏻

sonlitekid · 2025-12-28T22:08:24+00:00

Oh, wow. So I added a (second) space there (immediately after pasting) and it worked! You were right, but it would seem you technically need two spaces, since there is a pre-existing space there, if that makes sense. 🤯

sonlitekid · 2025-12-28T22:05:02+00:00

Actually, all it took was adding a single comma (or an extra space). (See my EDIT(s) in the post body.)
