I've in numerous places that the previous style (non-HD) Trinovids were excellent binoculars, perhaps superior optically to the new HD style. I've also heard they are heavier, but when folks have stated that they haven't given the weight. The new HD's are 24oz. I think. What is the weight of the older style? I see them available from time to time at attractive prices, but want to know how much weight I'd be adding compared to the newer Leica and Zeiss glass. My current glass is the old classic style Zeiss 10x40 with the T*P. I like them a lot and have the 2x doubler which makes for a nice ultra-light backcountry spotter - but am thinking I'd probably see quite a bit of improvement in newer mid-high end glass (Trino/Conquest level)?
