Hi,
as has been said, here in germany it's hard to find a brick & mortar store to try Nikon EDGs in, so one can only compare online prices - there they tend to be at the lower end of current alphas while being equal or better optically and mechanically.
They're lacking the super wide field of the Zeiss SF or the super light and small package of an FL 8x32 and of course the premium label - unlike the other alpha manufacturers Nikon offers optics in all price ranges (although Zeiss is also trying entry level)...
