I searched for a nice 8x42 for a while, but am starting to think a 8x32 might be better for me as it is smaller, lighter and usually has a larger FoV. But my question is.... will I as a demanding birder notice the less light gathering capability, somewhat lesser depth of field, more finicky eye placement and other optical imperfections 32 might be prone to? I think I can live with the eye placement issue, but really like optical performance.
