Hi guys, just looking for some advice from people that have tested or own either of these models. I currently own Leica Ultravid BR 8x42 bins, So I'm basically wanting to buy a pair of lighter more compact binoculars for a back up pair.
I've read loads of reviews on both of these bins and both are rated very highly by all accounts. I've got the cash to buy the Vortex immediately but would have to save a little bit longer for the zeiss. I've seen the vortex for £408 and the Zeiss for £559.
I'm just wondering is the Zeiss really worth the extra money or are the Vortex worth the punt. I think the unlimited lifetime warranty also makes the Vortex quite attractive.
I know people might say try both and see how they feel but my local optics shops only stock the Zeiss and don't seem to have the Vortex model
Cheers for any advice in advance.
