[QUOTE="dmj, post: 1910144, member: 73479"] I just went through this painful experience. I would not try and talk you out of the El binoculars although I talked myself out of them. I went with the 10x42 Swarovski SLC. Now to be completely honest I didn't figure I could afford new in the El binoculars and could afford new in the SLC binoculars. Did a lot of reading on the two? Some reviews advised that the El binoculars were better for bird watching and the SLC binoculars were better for hunters. A lot advised that they used the same glass. So to make a long story short I went with the SLC hoping that getting the newest technology in the SLC would help make up some of the difference in purchasing a 10 year old set of the El. Had no place or way to try and compare them so just went off of information I could goggle and we both know the internet would never miss lead you :cool: lol. Good luck, keep us posted with your decision. [/QUOTE]
