[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 2830552, member: 68875"] I was going to suggest the NL Pure until I saw your budget. I think the EL will be in the range if you find a good used set. The EL Range are probably out of your reach, along with the NL Pure. But, I would go down and actually look through all of your choices. Eyes are different, and like different things. For me, the Leica are a no-go, for the simple fact that eye relief with the eye cups fully extended is a touch shorter on them, and my eyelashes brush the lenses. That drove me nuts when comparing them side by side with other glass. That is something you would never know without actually trying them. The NL Pure have a bit of a difference in the view than the ELs. Not sure what it is, a touch of fisheye I think. When panning, I found the terrain to almost seem to warp/ungulate? Was a weird feeling, almost like a hint of vertigo for me. But the glass is absolutely insane. I prefer a separate bino/rangefinder setup. So I would personally avoid the EL Range. Give me amazing glass with a Revic BR4. So I don't have to worry about my premium binos every taking a dump because of the electronics in them. I have not tried the EL Range to see how accurate the LRF is, but I know the BR2, BR4, Sig Kilos are just stupid accurate on shooting solutions as long as you get your inputs correct. So for me, with your budget, there is only one choice. Swaro EL. [/QUOTE]
