Hi Edmund (post #96),
No need to wait, as it’s possible to do at least a front on comparison
The SF 8x32 is listed as 152 mm long x 112 mm wide (at 65 mm IPD), and
The Victory 8x25 as 112 mm x 100 mm (also at 65 mm IPD)
The images used are from the Zeiss website which show the eyecups down
However, when comparing the length to the width of the images, it seems that:
- the SF’s listed length is the maximum with the eyecups up, while
- the Vic’s is the minimum with the eyecups down
So using the widths to scale the images . . .
(if the SF’s length is 152 mm with the eyecups up, it will be 140 mm with them down)
So size wise, the SF 32 is not going to be an easy replacement for the Victory 25
It seems to be at least as long as the the Swarovski EL SV 32 at a listed 138 mm
