    Hand Tremors

    In the last few years my hands shake sometimes. I also wear eyeglasses. Not a very good combination when using Binoculars.
    Some years ago, I used some Binocular/Photo equipment that "countered" that movement. Does anyone know of any Binoculars available?
    Thank you.

    What you're looking for are any that have image stabilization. If you search for that feature, you'll find a good selection of binoculars, one of which should work well for you.

      Thank You very much.
      Getting Older comes with discoveries that can never be prepared for.
      I am a retired 40 year plus "Logger." That career has had a large impact on my current physical abilities.
      Thank you for helping me out.
      By the way, what do you think is the best ammo to use in my Sig Sauer 9 MM MPX?
      Thank you for any consideration.

        Glad to help. Yes, aging sucks. As for ammo, depends what you're using the gun for. For personal defense I tend to favor Federal HST for 9mm. Other 9mm that have good track record for such use include Hornady Critical, Winchester Ranger, Speer Gold Dot. There are quite a few others that are decent. For practice ammo I reload, but off the shelf, anything that isn't reloads is usually good to go.

          Inside of my home I would do all i could to avoid using anything other than a shotgun.
          Outside, I would use my MPX until Range becomes an issue. Plus, my 60-year-old GF uses that thing. The recoil is less than that of a BB Gun.
          What do you think. A Heavily Forested area with few neighbors.

            Stick with the hollowpoints I suggested. 9mm ball is not a great choice for social engagements.

              You want the Canon 10x42L IS WP binocular. It is the finest binocular made. I have compared it to $3000 Swaros. The Canon is superior for handheld viewing.

                  I've been hoping someone will make an image stabilized monocular.

                  Why monoculars are not more popular I do not understand-all the functionality of binos at half the weight.
