PS like others I thoroughly enjoyed your review. Nice to read one which isn't all "techy"

Hi John
I can recommend the Zeiss 100% for colour and brightness. In these values it clearly trumps the Leica. Don't however be fooled by the Lotu-Tec sales claims, it is bogus in my opinion.
The FL do not control flare as well as my Leicas used to, infact I can say this with conviction now and for me it is a serious flaw in the Zeiss and is detracting from my pleasure using them more than I initally thought it would during my initial comparissons. When the light is right the view is truly sublime, but the Zeiss is far less tolerant of difficult lighting situations than the Leica and eye placement for me is more of an effort with the FL where it was natural and automatic with the Leica. For me I'm not getting on with the Zeiss as I thought I would and while I am proud to own them I bitterly regret punting my 8x32BN's. I can now say with hindsight that the Trinovid while not as technically accomplished as the Zeiss were for me more natural in practical use and I miss them.
Hope this helps you
P.S. John you don't have a pair of Leica 8x32BR's and if you do where can I get a pair??:t:
