Recomend a small Monocular

[Guzzi Goose]

I have lost (let my 7 year old play with) my Monocular and am having problems finding a good replacement.

I want a small (fits in my fist) good quality monocular about 8x.

I've bought the Baraska?? one from Heinnies but it's large and has shocking edge distortions.

Price up to maybe £50 ,if you can get a good pair of binos for £100 shorely you can get half that for half the price.

Googeling it throws up "quality Monocular" as in "honest Johns cars" or indeed "Quality Hotel , Stoke-on-Trent"

Any Ideas?

Visionary M-10 - but it's the size of half a pair of binos rather than a fat cigar, if you get what I mean.
My Barska monocular is very small and pretty good for what it is. Doesn't sound like the same one.

Check out the opticron Trail finder 2 WP.
Great little monocular, i have the 10x25. Its small enough to just pop in the pocket. The do a larger version but its not a pocket carry, atleast not in my opinion.

2nd on the Opticron range - try the gallery scopes.

Thirded (!) on the Opticron
The 8x30 is expensive but VERY good and the Trailfinder would do just fine.
