Hi, I'm mainly interested in wildlife photography but also have what appear to be decent bins.
I have two sets:
Olympus EXPS (?) Pathfinder 7x50 porro prisms.
Simmons AETEC with BAK4 porro.
I see that many birders like roof prisms. I'm still not clear on what the pros/cons are. Brighter view?
I like my 7x50 more as they are easier to hand hold.
But the question is whether I'm missing out on not having a better set. I don't use them much, so it's not an issue of fatigue. More along the lines of whether I'll get significantly better results with a better set.
Thanks for any suggestions.
