I am about to go to California on Aug 1st camping in Big Basin. The focus knob is broken on my small binoculars (Zeiss 8x20)and I need a lowend (80-200 dollars) pair small enough for a pocket and a local source to get them - no time for mail order - Anybody have a favorite brand and/or a favorite local store? You can reply off list if you like. Thanks for any info...
