I compared them head to head with the Bushnell Elite 7x28 and there was no question in my mind that I preferred the view through the little 8x20's plus they are SMALLER. I sent the Bushnell back. It is a good looking binocular but optically it just doesn't compare I'm telling you. Those baby alphas are really good for their size. I guess it's kind of you get what you pay for. The little alphas are twice the price of the Bushnell Elite and they are definitely better optics with only a 20mm aperture. In fact the little alphas mimic their big brothers but they are not quite as good.</blockquote>
