The SF has a wider than usual FoV, so the 10x image is not as restricted as most 10x glasses, which is easier on the eyes for some.Given the expense of the glass, you probably need to test them out side by side to be sure of your choice. Bird fairs are usually pretty good places for that kind of research, unless you have a very accommodating shop nearby.The other option is to order both from Amazon and send back the one you don't want.</blockquote>
