[QUOTE="dfanonymous, post: 1729448, member: 97050"] Sorry I’ve been banned since July or something. It really depends...There are particular reasons to use different types of gear for specific use, for specific individuals. Range of what you are trying to look at is a part of it too. That being said, I only know what works for me, and for people I know, though I’m sure there’s more ways to skin this cat. Sooo, 12x might not be the end of the world, it doesn’t look all the much different then a 10x, that being said, if using for spotting game, I like the wider view in a 10x. I like using a 10x50...I find that 50s give me good vis in low light and prevent my eyes from tiring. I usually use a spotter for tine counting or verifying, or spotting a buddy...(stalk or shot) I have a bino adapter for the tripod, one can argue that 12-15x binos can be set up like that. The only issue is, and if you’ve used a straight 15x, it takes time to get use to being able to easily find things with 15x unless you are looking at a object a mile away. I would just use a spotter at that point. That covers stability issue, but more power in the bino, I can’t imagine that the exit pupil are going to better then a standard 10x50. For me, it’s been utterly worth it to never have eye fatigue anymore. [/QUOTE]
