Thanks for all your advice on the bins.
Went to try them all out and liked the Leica 8x32's the best, so I bought them today.
I'm very pleased with them and can't wait to get out into the field!

louisneuville said:Another difference is the "depth of field":
A 7x or 8x Bin as a greater (sharp) field in depth (from you to infinity) than a 10x.
It makes a great difference in a wooden aera, when searching after wildlife.
With my 7x42 I have "everything" sharp from a few 10 meters to infinity; With my 10x42, I have to re-focus more frequently.
