[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 975762, member: 12443"] First you should be comparing apples with apples. That is to say you shouldnt compare brand A 8x42 with brand B 8x50s. Generaly speaking, objective size is where the brightness factor comes from. However the difference between a 42 mm and a 50mm wont be earth shattering and under normal conditions might not be discernable to you. As for power, if you havent used 10x hand glasses i suggest you do before buying them. Most people would find the power a bit much for hand helds. 7 or 8 power would give a clearer view do to a steadier hold. You cant cover all the bases with one set of binnocs. For general purpose hunting an 8x42 would be your best choice. [/QUOTE]
