Just got through comparing the new Zeiss Conquest HD 15x56 to the new Swarovski SLC 15x56
The specs are fairly close except for FOV.
The 15x56 Conquest lists the FOV at only 80' at 1000 yds. :eek!:
The Swarovski lists FOV at 234' for 1000 yds. :h?:
Weight is 45.7 oz for the Conquest HD while Swarovski lists 42.3 oz
I was considering getting the Conquest 15x56 unless Zeiss builds an HT 15x56.
If they don't, I would, now, definitely get the Swarovski SLC over the Conquest.
Cannot believe how Swarovski blows away the Conquest FOV considering they both have Abbe Konig prisms and very similar dimensions. :h?:
How they managed an almost 3 to 1 difference is beyond me. :h?:
WTH ? :eek!:
The Swarovski SLC lists for $900.00 more dollars than the Zeiss Conquest HD but is easily worth every penny of it, imo, with a FOV that is nearly triple !!!
Anyone out there know if the specs may be incorrect for these models ?
