[QUOTE="Alexis Powell, post: 3268046, member: 5327"] Leica 8x20 Ultravid BL, Zeiss 8x32 FL, Zeiss 7x42 Classic. I'm still waiting for the perfect 8 or 8.5x42 for combo birding+butterflying. Nothing I have right now in that format is ideal for that use, so I don't think I'd buy, for example, the Leica 8x42 Ultravid, Swarovski 8.5x42 (old version) which are both great for birds, or the B&L 8x42 Elite (waterproof version) which is great for butterflies, again as I would instead wait (as I am doing now) for one of the almost perfect current models, for example the Swarovski 8.5x42 EL Swarovision, to be upgraded with variable-ratio focus. --AP [/QUOTE]
