[QUOTE="Nate Haler, post: 17695, member: 315"] RT, the smaller exit pupil you'll get in a 12x56 bino may be a detriment to your stated goal of maximum low light performance. Higher magnification means smaller field of view, more perceived wobble (although maybe you'll have them on a tripod), and dimmer image (unless you get a correspondingly huge objective lens). If it were me, I'd trade the higher mag for the bigger objective, i.e. an 8x56. You'll see more with the brighter image than you will with the higher magnification. [/QUOTE]
