    Leica upgrade Trinovid BA's vs. Ultravid HD's.

    I have been enjoying my Trinovid BA 8x32 for many years, but have a chance to buy some Ultravid 8x42 HD's for $500 more than I will get for the Trinovids if I choose to sell them. I understand the physical differences and exit pupil between the two, leading to likely much better light gathering...

    SLC WB HD vs. WB

    I have read contradicting info on these two models. I have the 10x42 (2011) HD's with more EL like outside covering, black hinges and the closer focus. Some places say that other than the close focus the optics between the two are the same, other sources mention improvements in the optics of the...

    NL pure 12x42

    Looking for input from anybody that has this bino, as I would mainly use for hunting I'm a little concerned about it's low light performance vs. the 12x50 EL? I don't live anywhere near a store that would have them on hand.

    please compare two older Alpha 10x42's

    a 2008 SLC Neu and 2012 geovid HD taking the rangefinder function out of the equation, just based on optical performance, which do you feel is a better bino used in good condition, and at the same asking price?

    leica 15x which one

    Kind of an odd question for you folks but I wasn't sure where else to turn as I don't live near a Leica dealer. I have a chance to buy either a used duovid 10x-15x or a demo geovid 15x56R for around $1500 I'm not too concerned about the ranging of the geovid, but more the optical performance at...

    SCL WB 10x50 when discontinued?

    I am looking at these used, the light green armor but the serial # DA871xxx would indicate a manufacture date of 2017? any input?

    duovid 10-15X

    Have there been improvements over the years to the duovid models or are they all the same since introduction?

    what year were SV's introduced

    STS HD 202 to 2015

    STS HD 2002 to 2015 when comparing the same model scope where there changes/ improvements between a STS HD 80MM made in 2002 and one made in 2015?

    ultravid non HD s. HD (8x42)

    optically speaking, how much of an improvement is there stepping up to the HD's from the previous model?

    your experience with aging eyes and binos

    As you've gotten older do find you like more magnification to help see distant detail better or less X 's as you may be less steady and find a more relaxed view with less power?

    Geovid fans?

    Realizing the main market is hunters like myself, any of you folks using geovid RF binos? I've had several of the previous models and currently am enjoying the now discontinued HD-R 8x42's and they proved to be a great optical tool.

    kowa 664 opinions

    I'd like to hear from folks with experience with this spotter and 20-60 TE 9Z 20-60 zoom eyepiece likes/dislike?.... how does it compare to a swaro STM (non HD) 65mm? thanks
