    Na surely that's not heavy enough though?

    I've got a pair of those 8x25 mountains due to arrive during the week, hopefully they're the goods. My normal binos are a bit gritty in the adjustments after falling in a glacier river. Silt everywhere.

    I've got 8X30 Kahles and its not exactly "midget" to me. I'd really like say 7x25 for a lot of North Island hunting, as it was really good carrying 8X 21 in my shirt pocket for Many years. The 8×30 is So much better in resolution and low light its not even the same sort of device.

    A mate has 10x42 geovids and they do have an edge in brightness and resolution. The bigger optic is oversize even "giant" but is superior if you're a big strong man with a big credit card prowling the south island tussock. ��
