[QUOTE="Loud Green Man, post: 3612409, member: 142176"] Not wishing to hijack this thread but assuming we are all 21 and given of normal vision I'm struggling to understand why more thought isn't given to the low light qualities in the selection of birding bins. There is of course a significant size and weight penalty with any 8×54/6 but to my mind this is worth enduring for the improved viewing experience in less than perfect light and not just at dawn and dusk. Just an observation that ideally woukd see the Op' try a pair of Zeiss Victory 8×54's and let us have his/her thoughts. LGM Ps: In hindsight perhaps I should have started a thread entitled "Big Bins Aren't Just for Hunters"! [/QUOTE]
