[QUOTE="looksharp65, post: 2316356, member: 83771"] An older thread where I have discussed this: [URL="http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?p=1892964#post1892964"]http://www.birdforum.net/showthread.php?p=1892964#post1892964[/URL] See attached image in post #5. My understanding of these things may be slightly different than then, but the discussion is still valid, IMO. Today, when I also own the Zeiss FL 10x32 with its enormous 69 degrees AFOV, I notice a marked difference when I switch between it and the Fury 6.5x32, but since I use the Fury exclusively with spectacles and the eyecups down, the PFOV still feels great. However, my new spectacles rest closer to my eyes and I need to raise the eyecups a couple of millimeters. Then, the increasing width of the black rim is immediately notable. Another bin that has been praised for its great transparency is the Meopta Meostar 8x32. Its barrels are sleek and don't obscure the FOV as much as the fattier models. And I guess even the Swaro EL 32s are made in a similar shape. [/QUOTE]
