Appreciate feedback on the Minox BV 8 x 25 BRW as a lightweight compact binocular for wildlife watching. Specs of BRW at Minox: http://www.minox.com/index.php?id=bv_line_technical_data&L=1
1) How does the Minox BV 8 x 25 BRW (model 62059) compare with the previous model Minox BV II 8 x 25 (model 62030)?
2) How does it compare with the Nikon Monarch 7 8x30, which is only about 3 oz. heavier than the Minox listed weight of 12.87 oz.?
3) Anyone know if the Minox listed weight is correct for the Minox BV 8x25 BRW? B&H lists it at 9.14 oz / 259.12 g and Minox lists it as 12.87 oz / 365g.
