I am currently enjoying my SF 8x32 but to report now would only be to repeat aspects of my earlier review so I will wait until December after we return from a month on the Isle of Islay to report further.

Lee,
Your opinion is much valued, especially since as an expert you can quickly discern the essentials. However, to stay on topic, your review is not the one which is missing, you already gave this instrument your seal of approval.
It's bewildering that an instrument with no major faults gets so little applause. The upshot may be that the SF 42 was a major update, and now the novelty has worn off, the 32 is "just" a very nice alpha with a very large field of view.
