Hi Folks,
I have just purchased a pair of (I think) first generation SLCs, in very good optical condition. Does anyone know if this model had phase correction coatings to the roof prisms?
My previous bins are Canon 8x32WP, and are brighter than the Swaros (observed by looking at the moon), but are inferior in contrast, weight, ergonomics etc. I know there is a lot of genuine technology in optic design, but low light performance, waterproofing and weight are probably the most important factors to me in the chosen magnification.
I'm considering buying a pair of Zeiss Dialyt 7x42, what waterproofing do they have? From what I can find out, they are only splashproof, would that mean they are not Nitrogen filled?
Thanks for any help you can give.
