Birdwatchers,
Some of you that have some experience with the binoculars in question. I do know a little about these, as I read much about binocular reviews, ect. For your information, I would love to have a Zeiss FL 7x42, but at $1300, little rich for my blood!! I would like someone that has looked through, both the B&L Elite 8x42 and the Pentax DCF SP 8x43, to help me in choosing same!! I am more interested in the image than anything else. I have read that both give the great image. Mechanically, they are about the same, I’m sure the B&L is best at ergonomics, but the Pentax is not bad. That leaves, only the most important, in my eyes, the optics. I’m sure most of you can see, that B&L is dying, while Pentax is coming on!! If Pentax keeps it going, we all know that, they’ll be # one before too long!! I think they already # one in versatility. I live in a rural area, and would have to travel 150 miles to find a place I could compare same.
Thanks for your time.
