If you're thinking of getting into birdwatching or nature spotting, an excellent choice would be to invest in a pair of Nikon Prostaff 3S 10x42 binoculars. These extremely well reviewed binos are great all-rounders for daylight viewing, and hit the sweet spot between quality and price, with coated optics for crisp, clear images, and a robust, waterproof build.
We awarded them a full 5* in our Nikon Prostaff 3s binoculars review, and right now you'll find them at the top of our best binoculars guide. While even at full price they won't break the bank, right now there are significant price drops in both the US and UK that make them very reasonable indeed.
In the US, they're $30 off at B&H Photo, with a binocular harness thrown in free for good measure. Meanwhile, in the UK you should head to Currys for a £30 discount. At that sub-$130 / £120 price point, we think these would make a great Christmas gift for a nature-lover. (If you're in the market for a bargain, feel free to consult our best Black Friday deals roundup, or get prepared for the Cyber Monday deals ahead of time.)
Not sure if those are the binoculars for you? There's also a good deal on in the UK on a pair of excellent stargazing binoculars. And we've popped our top-rated binocular models in a widget below so you can see the best prices in your region.
