    Is the Zeiss SFL 8x40 worth the difference in price over the Nikon MHG 8x42?

    Dennis you must have been in sales as an occupation. Why is Zeiss lowering the price on the SFL.

    How about a Leopold BX-4 8X42 hits all the needs at 1/2 the price of the MHG.

    I really thought you had and sold both the SFL and MHG. One question when does the big aperture go on sale, I am always looking for a deal,....no.... scratch that not interested in the Conquest.

    Is the Zeiss SFL 8x40 worth the difference in price over the Nikon MHG 8x42?
