i have both 10 and 8 power swarvo x25's, I also have bigger ones. the 8x25 get the most use. I spend a lot more time bird watching than looking for game and the compacts are plenty bright enough during the day(dawn/dusk they suck if your used to good full size) and being so small and light they get taken places at timesI wouldn't carry the bigger ones.
my five year old has tried very hard to destroy the compacts as he gets to use them when he gets dragged along bird watching but so far they are holding up
current NZ swarvo prices are fantastic, new is less than second hand in a lot of markets
