Hi all,
I am looking at purchasing a new pair of bins to bridge the gap between my hawke frontier edx 10x42 and have narrowed it down between the slc15x56 and the el12x50, I am leaning towards the slc 15x56 for further magnification, I can hold the 10x42 very steady when viewing standing, however I have never held or looked through the glass of any Swarovski bins, the optics on the hawke frontier are very good for the price, if I find the slc 15x56 to heavy I will carry a monopod or tripod when required, I will be using the bins for coastal and inland viewing and astronomy, my question is am I better with the 15x56 in jump up from magnification from my 10x42s. Thanks mac.
