[QUOTE="bruce_ventura, post: 805998, member: 34084"] Personally, I would not invest in a bino/LRF combo for hunting that had such a small exit pupil. The exit pupil is about 4 mm for all three 1 mile Fusions. Even my 55 year old eyes have at least 5 mm pupils in low light. That means the Fusion has about 65% of the brightness of a bino with a 5 mm exit pupil, like an 8x40. That's a pretty big hit in binocular performance just to get a bino/LRF combo. For hunting you would be much better off with an 8x40 bino and a separate LRF. For other applications that don't require good low light performance, the Fusions are a viable option. [/QUOTE]
