The EDG appeared about 9 years ago in 2008 or so in its original double hinged format which is informally identified as the "EDG I." Its exterior changed to a single hinged format in 2010 and it became the "EDG II."  The binocular's internal optics, as far as we know, remained the same.Here is a 2008 thread discussing whether or not the Nikon 8x32 SE was better than the Nikon 7x42 EDG  which I found at the bottom of this thread.<a href="http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=127857" target="_blank">http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?t=127857</a> Your comment above revives that old chestnut that "the more things change the more they remain the same!":king::t:Bob</blockquote>
