    Please do a valid Review on Swarovski NL

    I really think the natural comparison would be against an also squeaky clean and new Zeiss SF 42mm of the same power.

    8x32 EL vs HD+ ?

    I would PM you a link if I could (too new) but over at birdforum in the Zeiss subpage there is a new review where the little 8x25 is talked about quite a bit. I also like the reviewer you linked. That Tobias guy is why I can’t let Leica “go” as he seems to like the HD+ colors, build quality...

    8x32 EL vs HD+ ?

    Hi, thanks for the response. I am extremely interested in the Zeiss SF 32mm and expect it will be a heck of a glass. It is just that I am on birdforum also and watched the 42mm get introduced. There were a couple of things that got tweaked after the first production wave. The ones I have...

    8x32 EL vs HD+ ?

    What kind of establishment rents high end binoculars? I would certainly be willing if I found a good place to deal with.

    Seasons right around corner.. what you shooting?

    I like Hill style longbows the best for fun but that length.....shewwww... I hate the buzz of recurve limbs. So this year I am hybridizing and using a JK Traditions Kanati 60” 48# at 28” 500 spine still futzing with perfect weight

    Low Light Glassing Question

    I would consider going up in power actually. There is something called twilight factor where basically more power helps see detail in dim light. Brightness is more aesthetically pleasing however. If your eyes no longer dilate enough to make use of big lens/wide exit pupils then trying the...

    Bargain 8x42 binos

    I have a set of the Athlon Cronus 10x42 from CameralandNY that were marked down from 5 something to $320ish. I think they are built like the 8.5 you mentioned. I find them pretty nice overall. Decent sweet spot and sharp but they are also heavy and I don’t much like the diopter adjustment button.

    8x32 EL vs HD+ ?

    Hello, I am pretty new here. Have any of you compared the EL 8x32 with the HD+ ? I want a smaller general use set of good binoculars. I know the EL will be more popular but between the reports of glare and the flat field lacking a bit of depth (I have owned 10x50 EL before) I am not so sure...

    15x binos BANG FOR BUCK?

    I originally had my heart and goals set on the SLC but sorta ran out of time and money and “settled” for the MeoStar HD. I doubt I have missed a single thing and only regret not using them more.
