[QUOTE="zog, post: 1729322, member: 102742"] Since the thread starter got his answers I want to side-track a little and talk handheld max power. I am salivating at some 12x50's. I have been using Swaro 10x42 for years and of course I love them but just want to see how much better my 61 year old eyes can see with 12x. However several have commented on shakiness without a tripod. Several say that 10x with tripod easily beats handheld 12x. It makes sense to me; sometimes without using a solid elbow rest in wind, even 10x can be shaky for me. Its also pretty obvious to me that my ultimate would be 15x with tripod, but my question is more about 12x handheld. I know I might just need buy a pair of 12x and find out for myself, but before setting myself back, I was hoping for some comments on your experiences . . . [/QUOTE]
