[QUOTE="Longrangers, post: 1926630, member: 101564"] I just went through this with my son last year. We went to Europtics and got a bunch out during low light to compare. We looked at Leupold, kowa, Zeiss, Swarovski, vortex, and Leica. The salesman kept pushing Swarovski. We started the process of elimination during low light hours a we came down to 8 power binoculars seemed to work a little better at low light. We continued the elimination process and we were down to Swarovski, zeiss, Leica and vortex. After 3 of us including the sales rep we all 3 agreed that the vortex razors were better. Even the rep said that he was surprised. But I believe that you can get a good piece of glass or bad piece of glass in them all. Best to look for what seems to fit your eyes and also go somewhere they have a big selection and compare looking outside in low light at the the objects. My son got the vortex razor 8x42 under 1000.00. But again everybody’s eyes are different. [/QUOTE]
