[QUOTE="Zep, post: 958344, member: 39468"] We bought my father a Zeiss 7x42 about 15 years back. Same criteria you are looking for now. These things are still great. Every once and a while I try to find a good used pair. I would not chase the latest and greatest in Swaro or Zeiss. Just buy what he likes. The 8 or 8.5 is a nice start. If I had to do it today I would probably buy him that. The 42 is bigger than the 32 but also brighter. Best if you can get your hands on these to see if he likes the specific model. Leica makes nice glass as well but they never fit our hands as well as the Zeiss. Swaro is always a favorite. Like I said, he will be happy with any of them. And check warranties. [/QUOTE]
