The FL was never the most favorite premium binocular of most here, but considering how long ago it was developed, I would already consider it a classic. The 7x42 FL is probably the easiest to use (focus) and most performant (FOV, light transmission) binocular for tropical birding, coincidentally the kind of birding I prefer to do most.
What tropical areas do you bird in being from Belgium and what species have you seen? I agree that the Zeiss 7x42 FL would be great under canopies in the tropics. I am going to the Yucatan Pennisula and Belize in three weeks and I hope to see some birds I haven't seen before. I want to see one of these. It is a Keelbilled Toucan their national bird.
