[QUOTE="ScottBerish, post: 230818, member: 11933"] I understand this wasn't an ideal pairing among binos, but it's what I had in hand. The clarity, brightness, and color rendition of the Genesis is second to none. It just failed the resolution chart test. It may have been a lemon pair, or that may be the way their spec'd. I ordered a new pair to recheck. If you can get past the size and bulk of the Nobilems, they are amazing. The resolution is the best. So, if seeing fine details is what you need, they are the way to go. In a field setting, I'm not sure the Genesis lack of tested resolution compared with the Docter Aus Jena is a true handicap. Let me put it this way. In the scenario you describe the deer/yotes will jump out at you easier, due to the better color and contrast. This is especially true in low light scenarios, as the Docter are pretty damm good during the day. Once you spot something, the Docter will give you more details than the Genesis I tested. I really like the Nobilems, especially for the money. I'll take them out today again at the ranges you mention, and have another look. Scott [/QUOTE]
