[QUOTE="Len Backus, post: 1227208, member: 1"] For glass quality, the latest generation Swarovski 10x42 EL with Swarovision is amazing. I had kind of lost track of just how much additional progress had been made in high end binos by Swarovski in recent years. Earlier this year when I removed my own new EL's from the shipping box and looked out my window at a tree I remember almost gasping out loud. I know that sounds like hype but that was my true reaction. This newest model's optical design is about 2 years old. Compared to my 15 year old Swarovski EL's there is a large difference even though the older ones are still quite good. Brightness, edge to edge sharpness, depth of focus, contrast, resistance to glare, color fidelity (according to trusted hunting guide friends with better color vision than my own) The more my own technical knowledge of optical quality improves, the easier it is to see the differences from one brand to the next or from one brand's model to the next within that same brand.
