I know this is a ridiculous title, and doesn't necessarily match the following, but:
ONLY considering the following three criteria, what's the best view?
1. Sweet spot/FOV size (overall field -not just % of view).
2. Ease of view: i.e. no blackouts, easy eye placement, shake friendly, etc.
3. Stray light control.
For the sake of this survey, I'm assuming good resolution and throwing out weatherproofness, weight, handling, eye relief,etc. From all I've read (mostly here), and from personal experience, the glasses to consider for the best combination of these three criteria might include: Nikon EII 8x30, Swaro 8.5x42 EL, Swaro SLC 7x42 (New).
What others should be included on short list?
Thanks, APS
