They are an evaluation pair I was given at a recent bird festival. They are the 8x42 configuration.2. I don't know the weight off hand but I can weigh it later today and give you a specific answer. My guess would be in the mid 20's (ounces)...maybe 24 or 25 if I had to hazard a guess. Not sure how that translates into grams.3. I can actually make that exact comparison as I have both on hand. My "guess" would be that the VHD will be brighter...it is actually "that bright"...but I will let you know for sure later.</blockquote>
