I own the 7x36 Zen, I was in the first group to recieve them. Iam one of the lucky ones that dont have a problem with the ghosting or glare with my 7x36 & I perfer the veiw of these over the 7x36 Eaglet, ....but if I ever decided to purchase a 7x bino to have with me all the time the Eaglet would be my choice due to its size. I use the Zen most of the time on my cabin porch over looking the lake. The small bino I carry with me all the time instead of the  Eaglet is the 6x32 viper, its just as compact & gives me a better view. Getting back to the dakotas, Iam not sure if the material inside the one I took back really effected my view or not, but I was afraid it would just get worse if it was from  any of the material used inside the binocular.........gwen</p></blockquote><p></p>
