Kowa BD 8x25 GR (1 Viewer)

Havent compared optics. Ergonomically the top 8x20´s are too small for me. The Kowa 10x25 was more pleasant to use, in terms of eyeplacement. little bigger eyecups and one hinged, and "big" smooth focus wheel, makes overall a more pleasant experience. 8x25 must be better than 10x25 in all these areas but magnification.
 
Yes, I like Kowa 8x25 ergonomically, but I was very interested in direct comparison with alpha binoculars about its optics.

Have you compared the best Kowa (Genesis Prominar XD) side by side against the best Leica (Noctivid), Swarovski (NL Pure & EL) and Zeiss (Victory SF)?
