Next to my general use binocular I'm looking for a model that I can take with me while I'm flyfishing or maybe a bit of rough hiking. So they have to be suitable for use with glasses, be quite compact (but not like a pocket bin, tried those and I can't place them), waterproof (good chance of getting wet) and have (correct me if I'm wrong) large eyepieces to look through.
Like I said, I tested pocket binoculars (Swarovski CL 8x25 and Zeiss Victory Pocket 8x25) but didn't like those at all with my glasses.
I also tested some Zeiss Conquest HD 8x32, but again had difficulty with getting a good view. With a good view I mean a round view with not to much black, I just can't get a nice round view.
In comparison, if I use a Zeiss Victory SF 8 or 10x42, the view is immediatly good.
Last but not least, this binocular does not have to be an expensive one. I find the price of forementioned pockets more then enough.
Maybe one of you experts can explain me why I have such difficulty with good placement/getting a round view.
