Birding gear is a direct parallel to bikes, though, in terms of incremental benefit/$. I have a pair of Zen-Ray ED binos that cost $350 and they come very close to Leicas in performance

As I stated above, I was talking about the Leica for around $2000. I believe 42 hd was the model. She does have a spotting scope, too, but I haven't ever messed with it.
