Interesting speculation.
I think its too early for a big-bore HT like a 50 or 56. I think Zeiss will assessing carefully how the 42 is being adopted by the hunting community and whether its enhanced light transmission will make large diameter objectives unnecessary. So, a big-bore HT is not off the agenda but I guess its on the back burner for now.
I think Brock may well be right when he touts the Conquest HD line as most likely to get big objectives. In fact I would put money on these coming out soon.
I also predict 32mm Terra EDs, providing novices and tourists and other more casual users with a compact inexpensive format.
7x42s, in fact, 7xanything, are off the agenda for Zeiss IMHO. They have been there, done that and not sold enough.
Not long to SHOT now!
