Morning all
I'm looking to replace a pair of Delta s 10 x 42 which I dropped onto concrete at the weekend. Although a costly mistake I can't say that I am sad to see them go - never really felt that they were easy to use, they were soft off centre which I found disconcerting, looking at anything other than straight down the middle made it look like I needed to adjust the dioptre.
The Deltas were a replacement for a pair of Opticron 8 x 32 travellers which were also dropped (don't say anything :-C) and smashed up badly. That WAS heart breaking, I was very happy with them.
So looking around at cheaper options due to the recurring theme (concrete) I can pick up the prostaff from HDEW for £155 but I can't find a stockist where I can try them first. Anybody prepared to give me some advice on where they stand compared to the 2 I have consigned to optic heaven?
HDEW do have the Monarch 7 at £229. Now they are obviously better but would I really notice the difference if I do stick to my guns and go for the cheaper pair?
Just bear in mind that there is a piece of concrete out there waiting for me 33
