    Asking for advice on pocket binocular

    If my advice will be interesting for you, than i say for pockets: 1. ONLY 8x (not 10). 2. Choose between: Zeiss VP 8x25, Zeiss Terra 8x25, Swaro CL 8x25, Swaro Curio 7x21, Nikon Hg L Dcf 8x20, Leica UV BR 8x20. 3. Important and Necessarily - always look through before buy. Or better - compare...

    Swarovski CL 8x25 vs Zeiss Terra ED 8x25: one more comparison

    Used both (terra 8x25 and CL 8x25) side by side at same time at December 2022. And my opinion based on my two examples. Terra better in: 1. Central Sharpness and Resolution (tested on grids of a brick walls, numbers on the cars, price tags in shops from large range). Terra more poison-sharp...

    Leica 8x20 Ultra V Swaro 8x25CL

    Now its China only for whole line Terra. At least old Japanese version of Terra 8x25 “not worse” than new Chinese, or maybe a bit better. But Zeiss itself told that they are controling quality of production very strictly and overall quality will not become worse

    Leica 8x20 Ultra V Swaro 8x25CL

    Anyway - try (look through) all binos from your list and make your own choice. Noone can tell you which one better for you, except your eyes.

    Leica 8x20 Ultra V Swaro 8x25CL

    I’d say that leica uv br 8x20 has shallow fov, finicky eye placement and glaring. Sharpness acceptable. Good bright colours. Little and rugged. Swaro 8x25 (newer) - just glaring and not perfectly sharp, poor colours with cold greenish tint. Good from edge to edge, good brightness, good body...

    Nikon Monarch HG 8x30 - worth or not to buy, considering prose n cons?

    1. So Leica UVHD+ 8x32 better than Nikon mhg 8x30 by much? How Leica does with eye-positioning, is it finicky? 2. How does Zeiss SFL 10x40? Does have objective weaknesses? Much worse than 8x40 (heard someth on forums)??

    Nikon Monarch HG 8x30 - worth or not to buy, considering prose n cons?

    Hello to good people. Have Nikon mhg 10x42 - a good pair, very like it. So now thinking about buying small (115-125mm in long) pair of 8x30 or 8x32, that will do not worse than mhg 10x42 overall. Thinking about buying younger brother mhg 8x30, but worrying about its eternal downsides - glaring...
