Not to be contrary, but how impactful are these minor increases in FOV? I am truly asking, as I have never yet owned any of these "alpha" binoculars (I use Zeiss Conquest).
My point is, between the Victory SF and the Swaro NL, you're talking about roughly 30 feet at 1000 yards. 30 feet sounds significant. But we are talking about A THOUSAND YARDS. That's over half a mile. Is that a detectable difference in FOV at that distance? That translates to 3 feet at 100 yards. Are these huge and noticeable differences? It's hard to imagine that that they are, but I have no experience with it. Thanks.
My experience is that when the "true" FOV (TFOV) difference is slight, the "apparent" FOV (AFOV) is the dominant factor. Two binoculars with identical TFOV and magnification may have different AFOV due to different distortion profiles.
Some binoculars have "flatteners" which reduce pincushion distortion and straighten lines towards the edges (sometimes even reversing to slight barrel distortion), but this creates a phenomenon called "angular magnification distortion" (AMD) where objects become compressed / squished as you approach the edge (this is the source of the "rolling ball" concept, as the compression at the edges makes objects appear as though they are curving over the surface of a sphere).
For example, I currently have several 10x binoculars, two of which (Kowa Genesis 10x33 and Zeiss Conquest HD 10x32) have nearly identical TFOV (both spec'd at 6.8 degrees, with the Genesis listed at 119m and the Conquest at 118m @ 1000m). However, the Genesis has more severe AMD than the Conquest, with a lot of "compression" at the edges, and as a consequence the Conquest feels a bit more "walk-in" or "immersive" than the Genesis.
I also have the Nikon EDG 10x32 which has a 6.5 degree TFOV, but the Kowa subjectively feels like it's in between the EDG and Conquest in AFOV whereas in terms of TFOV it's identical, if not slightly better than, the Conquest. Because that extra wide FOV was achieved by basically "squishing" more stuff in at the edges, so the "return" on the extra TFOV translating to more AFOV isn't as high as you'd expect based on the specs.
Additionally, the EDG has an enormous sweet spot, it's sharp and clean virtually to the EDG (har har), whereas the Kowa gets considerably funkier in the outer 30-40% of the view. The huge sweet spot and near edge-to-edge clarity makes the FOV of the EDG subjectively feel like it "overachieves" its FOV spec, whereas the Kowa "underachieves" slightly.
Leaving that wrinkle aside and "all else equal" in terms of distortion profile, .... I find that an increase of ~3-5% in linear FOV (which works out to a ~10% increase in the total area of the circle) is subtly but clearly noticeable. For example, I have a Leica Trinovid 10x42 with a 6.2 degree FOV and when I switch to a 10x with a 6.5 degree FOV like the EDG or my old Tract Toric UHD I definitely notice the view feels a bit more "open" or "walk-in". When I physically test them side by side and examine where the edge is, you only actually see a tiny bit more stuff on the perimeter (the difference is ~320' vs ~340', so just an extra 10' or so on each side at 1000' distance) and yet the difference in "apparent" FOV is quite obvious when you switch. Same as with the 6.5 degree FOV of the EDG vs the 6.8 degree FOV of the Conquest HD, it's subtle but I definitely notice.
Once you get beyond that ~5% linear increase range, the difference becomes really obvious. For example the difference between the 6.2 degrees of the 10x42 Trinovid vs the 6.8 degrees of the 10x32 Conquest HD is impossible to miss.
