[QUOTE="Despotes, post: 2439559, member: 90326"] On paper, the Zeiss has great specs as far as glass that's used "T* six-layer mult-coatings, FL (fluoride) lenses throughout, 92% light transmission..., but I frequently read stories of inconsistent optical performance with this scope which seems odd with a scope of these specs. The Zeiss V6 reminds me of the older Diavari FL scopes, but the V6 is merely a "Conquest". ? Swarovski apparently gave up on marketing since I can't find much on the optical specs for their Z6 line. I read the glass used depends on the specific model in the Z6 line. The 2.5-15X56 is the only one that says it uses "HD" optics in the objective. does that mean ED glass or is this merely marketing speak? This also has 91% light transmission vs the rest of the Z6 line which has 90%. Which has the better overall sharpness, contrast resolution and low light performance? [/QUOTE]
