    I love mine. I use them a lot. Everyone I let look through them are amazed. My Canons are sitting in a drawer.

    A 16x42 is not going to be an optimal low light performer. It's simple science. As far as the Swaro comparison, are they 16x42? And can you hand hold them?

    Advice on IS binoc. with more mag.

    The Sig Zulu's are remarkably light and easy to hold for long periods.

    Get a wrist strap. They are light enough. That's how I carry mine.

    I took mine to an air show over the weekend. It was great being able to actually see the pilots in the planes.

    They say our love won't pay the rent Before it's earned, our money's all been spent I guess that's so, we don't have a pot But at least I'm sure of all the things we got

    I still have my Canons, but haven't used them much at all. I was out in the bay on a boat with the Zulu 6 16x42. The IS allow3d me to view houses on the shore, and other boats. They really do negate most of the up and down motion of being on the water.

    I've had mine for a month longer than he has. I have no complaints. Only. praise. And yes, they are fantastic on the moon. And we have no evidence that in a decade or so, monkeys won't fly out of my butt.

    No. But who cares if its 39, 40, or 41? Some of you guys are like the pixel peepers on photography forums. What looks good, is good.

    I spent some time at a bald eagle sanctuary yesterday. The Sig performed marvelously. There were some eagles perched in a tree maybe 500 yards away, and I could easily watch them preening and snipping at each other. Very stabile view. I really appreciate how light they are. I was there for over...

    I see zero CA with my golden eyes, and heat wave distortion increases with magnification. My 20 spotting scope shows quite a bit.

    With the so called Strawberry Moon, I was able to sit on my back porch and view it at 16x and the views were excellent. Much stiller than my Canon 12x36 IS III. The IS system used in the Sig is superior.

    I'm thinking 20x42 would get pretty dim at dusk. I'm curious about the 10x and await your opinion on them.

    Plane spotting is great. Once you get one in view you can follow it very easily. I've used mine to view ships out in the shipping lanes. With 16x I can see people on deck and on the bridge. Really nice for birds that aren't real close. Great colors. I was downtown for an appointment and while...

    Aside from birds, I was able to view the moon. Clear skies. The half moon was fun to view at 16x handheld. Nice details and sharp views

    The exit pupil might be getting a bit too small on those.
