[QUOTE="e_kjellgren, post: 3331625, member: 130647"] The old Nikon is really in bad shape, the diopter istnt working. And its not wife-friendly if you know what I mean. WAF is low. The new cheap 10x42 is really nice though, it's called "Dörr Danubia WildView Roof Prism 10x42", so what I hope to gain from that is more of a quality feeling (maybe the step up to Zeiss Conquest HD is silly, that's 7 times more expensive!). I've done a small comparison chart, just to narrow it down to the Zeisses: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Model / Price / Eye Relief / Exit Pupil / FOV@1000m / Weight Zeiss Conquest HD 10x42 / 780€ / 18mm / 4,2mm / 115m / 750g Zeiss Conquest HD 8x42 / 750€ / 18mm / 5,25mm / 128m / 795g Zeiss Conquest HD 8x32 / 680€ / 16mm / 4mm / 140m / 630g Danubia WildView 10x42 / 110€ / 16,2mm / 4,1mm / 101m / 640g To honor my whifes gift maybe I should just keep the Danubia and enjoy it until I really feel I need something better. Problem is that I have to decide tomorrow if we are going to send it back. What I'm looking for is a more steady and calm image, is that possible with the Zeiss? [/QUOTE]
